Jungle Scout pricing structures and tiers

Jungle Scout bucks the industry trend of hiding pricing points, with fully visible subscription tiers available online. There are four tier options, each targeting various Amazon sellers: first-timers, existing sellers, and global brands and retailers. We’ve outlined these four tiers below.

Additional Jungle Scout costs to consider‍

The company is very transparent about its pricing — simply visit this Jungle Scout page for a full breakdown of the features of each subscription tier.

Other vendors offering Amazon sellers software‍

We work independently of software vendors at Vertice, which means we have no vested interest in promoting one solution over another. We want your business to secure the right contract for you. With this in mind, here are three alternative options to Jungle Scout.

Jungle Scout pricing vs AMZScout

AMZScout is the primary competitor of Jungle Scout and carries many of the same features, including product research, keyword research and competitor analysis. AMZScout also offers a seven-day free trial.AMZScout pricing is a little more complicated than Jungle Scout. Monthly and annually-paying customers can only access the Seller’s Bundle — a comprehensive platform for both beginners and experienced sellers — at a price of $49.99pm or $379.99 per year.The third option is the lifetime subscription, offering customers the same product for $1,599.99 all-in — a significant reduction if used over a long duration. Lifetime subscribers can also access other platform packages, including the PRO Extension for $799.99, and the Dropshipping, Arbitrage and Wholesale Extension for $999.99.

Jungle Scout pricing vs Helium 10

Helium 10 is a combined solution for Amazon and Walmart sellers, ideal for users of both marketplaces. The platform offers product research, keyword research, listing optimization, analytics and more. There are three Helium 10 pricing tiers:

• Starter – $29pm, includes basic product and keyword research functions, as well as basic analytics and listings optimization tools.

Jungle Scout pricing — the Vertice verdict‍

Jungle Scout has an extra subscription tier compared to the three competitors discussed here, which may appeal to customers looking for the most flexibility. Pricing transparency is excellent for all three vendors, with only the costs of Jungle Scout’s Cobalt tier hidden. For those selling on both Amazon and Walmart, Helium 10 looks like the best option, simply because its platform caters to both marketplaces. And for those looking for Amazon advertising platform functionality, Viral Launch’s Pro Plus Ads tier offers good value here. If you’re confident in the platform you need, AMZScout’s lifetime subscription packages are a refreshing approach to pricing that will save the right customers huge amounts over a longer period of time.But whichever solution you choose, know that Vertice’s customer purchasing teams are ideally placed to negotiate the very best deal on your organization’s behalf.
