The short answer
How much does Zendesk Chat cost?
Sold as part of the Zendesk suite, per agent per month, from roughly $55.
It is priced per seat, so a three person team pays about $165 a month, or $1,980 a year.
What you are buying
The chat component of the Zendesk support suite.
What it costs as the team grows
| People replying | Zendesk Chat | TGLiveChat Pro |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | $55/mo | $19/mo |
| 3 | $165/mo | $19/mo |
| 5 | $275/mo | $19/mo |
| 10 | $550/mo | $19/mo |
Zendesk Chat charges per seat, so the left column multiplies and the right one does not. This is the whole difference between the two pricing models.
Where Zendesk Chat earns it
If your company already runs Zendesk, the chat that comes with it lives in the same inbox as everything else, which is worth more than any feature comparison.
Where we are different
Flat pricing, and a widget that does not spend most of a second of CPU on the visitor device.
Being straight about the trade: TGLiveChat has no ticketing, no knowledge base, no reporting suite and no CRM. The price gap is smaller than it looks if you were genuinely using those. It is the entire point if you were not.
| Plan | Price | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 100 conversations a month, one widget, our badge |
| Pro | $19/mo | Unlimited conversations, white label, AI agent. $156 a year works out at $13 a month |
| Agency | $59/mo | 10 client workspaces, per client branding, unlimited AI knowledge base |
| Founder | $299 once | Pro permanently, AI capped at 1,000 replies a month |
The bottom line
Zendesk Chat is priced for a company with a support department. If that is you, the per seat model is fair and the product is built for it. The question is not whether it is expensive, it is whether you are using what you are paying for.
Check the branding charge and the AI billing before you decide. Those two lines move the total more than the headline price does.
