BoxHero Pricing Plans Explained: What You Get in the Free vs. Business Plan

If you're considering BoxHero for your inventory management needs, understanding the pricing plans is a great place to start. This guide breaks down what’s included in each plan, who it's for, and how to choose the best option for your team.


Overview: Two Simple Plans

As of July 2025, BoxHero offers two pricing plans:

  • Personal Plan – Free forever
  • Business Plan – Paid monthly or annually, with a 30-day free trial

Each plan is designed with a specific type of user in mind. The Personal Plan is ideal for individuals or very small teams managing inventory on a basic level. The Business Plan is built for teams that need more control, collaboration features, and operational flexibility.

A Quick Note About Feature Access

While the Personal Plan offers a solid set of features for getting started, some advanced capabilities—such as Low Stock Alerts, Inventory Link, and Inventory Count—are available only on the Business Plan.

If you're using the free plan and try to access one of these premium features, you’ll see a lock screen like the one below. At that point, you’ll have the option to upgrade your plan or learn more about what’s included.
