What a consent tool costs as your site grows
CookieYes prices each domain by its monthly pageviews. Complianz prices by the number of sites. TidyConsent Pro is $49 a year for one site or $99 a year for up to five, whatever your traffic — and the free plugin has no pageview limit either.
Competitor prices checked on 13 November 2026 from their public pricing pages; they may have changed. Prices are in US dollars, before any tax, on yearly billing. Follow the links to see the current figures.

On CookieYes Basic and Pro, traffic past the plan's allowance can be billed as extra pageviews at $0.30 per 1,000. CookieYes's documentation says that when a site reaches its monthly limit with extra pageviews switched off, the banner is no longer displayed until the next cycle, an upgrade, or extra pageviews are switched on. Extra pageviews are on by default for accounts created after 23 December 2025.
Complianz lists Google Consent Mode v2, geo IP and its IAB TCF integration as Premium features; the free Complianz plugin does not include them. In TidyConsent, Google Consent Mode v2 is part of the free plugin.

Questions about the price
Do I need Pro for Google Consent Mode v2?
No. In the free plugin, all four Consent Mode signals (ad_storage,
ad_user_data, ad_personalization,
analytics_storage) start as denied and update when a visitor
chooses, and Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Google Ads are held
back until the matching category is allowed. Complianz lists Consent Mode v2
as a Premium feature.
What Pro adds today:
- A weekly re-scan of your site, with a plain-English email when a new tracker appears.
- A hosted backup of your consent log.
- Releasing a site's seat on your license yourself, for example an old address.
- A billing page, opened from WordPress, to update your card or cancel.
Does the price go up at renewal?
No. There is no first-year discount: Pro is a yearly subscription at one fixed price, so year two is the same $49 (one site) or $99 (five sites) as year one. We email you before each renewal, and you can cancel from WordPress at any time.
What does "no pageview limit" mean exactly?
Neither the free plugin nor Pro counts your pageviews or visitors. There is no meter, no throttle, and nothing that switches the banner off when your site has a busy month. The price depends only on how many sites you use Pro on.
Can I get a refund?
Yes: a full refund within 14 days of purchase or renewal, no questions asked. See the terms.
Where are consent records stored?
In your own WordPress database, in the plugin's table
(wp_tidyconsent_log with the default table prefix). Each record
has the time, a consent ID, the categories chosen and a salted hash of the
visitor's IP address — never the raw address. The free plugin does not send
them anywhere.
With Pro active, a copy of new records is also sent once a week to the TidyConsent service as a hosted backup (you can also send one by hand). The records in your database stay where they are. See the privacy policy for how long backups are kept.
Does any of these make my site legally compliant?
No tool can promise that. TidyConsent gives you the mechanics — asking first, honouring the answer, and keeping a record — and you remain responsible for how your site uses them.
