inFlow Inventory has four published plans in the US. Billed yearly, Lite costs $99 a month ($1,188 a year), Core $299 a month ($3,588), Pro $499 a month ($5,988) and Max $699 a month ($8,388). Billed monthly the same plans are $129, $379, $629 and $879. Every plan now includes unlimited products, sales orders, purchase orders and integrations; what changes between them is team members (2, 5, 10 and 20), locations (1, 5, then unlimited) and which add-ons are included. Onboarding is a one-time $499. These figures come from inFlow's own pricing page, which replaced the old Entrepreneur, Small Business and Mid-Size plans and their order allowances. Many directory listings still quote the old plans, so check any quote against the tables below.
The plan price is still rarely the whole bill. Extra seats, extra locations, lot and serial tracking, API access and the B2B portal are priced separately on the lower plans, and the required onboarding fee lands in month one. Below: every plan, every add-on that changes the total, the point where Core beats Lite, three first-year budgets, and how inFlow compares with the tools buyers shortlist next to it.
inFlow pricing plans at a glance
| Item | Lite | Core | Pro | Max |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Billed yearly | $99/mo ($1,188/yr) | $299/mo ($3,588/yr) | $499/mo ($5,988/yr) | $699/mo ($8,388/yr) |
| Billed monthly | $129/mo | $379/mo | $629/mo | $879/mo |
| Team members included | 2 | 5 | 10 | 20 |
| Inventory locations | 1, no sublocations ($39 per extra) | 5 ($39 per extra) | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Products, sales orders, purchase orders, integrations | Unlimited | Unlimited | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Advanced access rights and PO approvals | Not offered | $69 add-on | Included | Included |
| Onboarding package ($499 one time) | Optional | Required | Required | Required |
| One-time hardware credit (new customers) | $100 | $250 | $500 | $1,000 |
The biggest change for existing buyers is the order meter. The old entry plan included 100 sales orders a month and charged $0.20 for each extra one; the new plans have no sales order limit at all, so a busy holiday month no longer changes the invoice. Seats and locations are now the levers that move you up a tier.
How much does inFlow cost per month?
inFlow costs $99 a month on Lite, $299 on Core, $499 on Pro and $699 on Max when billed yearly, which saves about 20% against the monthly prices of $129, $379, $629 and $879. A typical five-person wholesaler with QuickBooks Online, a Shopify store and lot tracking lands at about $340 a month on Core once the lot add-on is counted, plus the one-time $499 onboarding fee.
How much does the inFlow app cost?
The inFlow mobile app for picking, receiving and counting comes with every inFlow Inventory plan. The separate inFlow Stockroom app, built for scanning supplies and consumables in and out, is $39 a month as an add-on to a paid plan, or a standalone product at $69 a month billed yearly ($89 monthly), with extra stockroom locations at $5 each. Stockroom on its own does no reordering, costing or sales, so it is not a replacement for the full system.
inFlow add-on prices
This is where the bill grows on Lite and Core. All prices are monthly and sit on top of the plan:
| Add-on | Lite | Core | Pro | Max |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Extra team member | $29 | $29 | $29 ($24 from the 6th extra) | $29, falling to $14 at 31+ extra |
| Extra location | $39 | $39 | Unlimited included | Unlimited included |
| Lot numbers (batches, expiry) | $39 | $39 | Included | Included |
| Serial numbers | $39 | $39 | $39 | Included |
| API access (including the MCP server) | $49 | $49 | Included | Included |
| Showroom (B2B portal on your domain) | $39 | $39 | Included | Included |
| inFlow Stockroom | $39 | $39 | $39 | $39 |
One-time fees: the onboarding package is $499, optional on Lite and required on Core, Pro and Max, and an upgraded training package is $500 to $999 more. A full implementation package is $2,999, extra integration setup is $500 per integration, and paid training and professional services run $199 an hour.
When Core beats Lite
On yearly billing Core costs $200 a month more than Lite. Lite can grow with add-ons: three extra members at $29 take it to 5 people for $186 a month, and each extra location adds $39. Five people across three locations on Lite costs $264 a month, still under Core. Add a fourth location and Lite reaches $303, which is where Core (5 members, 5 locations, $299) becomes the cheaper plan.
The other trigger is control. Lite has no advanced access rights, so if you need purchase order approvals, location-based restrictions or per-rep visibility, Core plus the $69 add-on is the minimum, and at that point Pro ($499 with approvals, lots, API and Showroom included) is worth pricing next to it.
Three first-year inFlow budgets
1. Two-person online seller on Lite, about 250 orders a month
Lite billed yearly is $1,188. Orders and integrations are unlimited, so Shopify and QuickBooks Online cost nothing extra, and onboarding is optional. Adding lot tracking for dated stock is $39 a month ($468). First year: $1,188, or $1,656 with lots.
2. Five-person wholesaler on Core, about 800 orders a month
Core billed yearly is $3,588. Lot tracking is $39 a month ($468), and onboarding is a required $499. QuickBooks Online, Shopify, a marketplace and a shipping tool are all covered by unlimited integrations. First year: $4,555, or about $380 a month.
3. Twelve-person distributor on Pro, about 3,000 orders a month
Pro billed yearly is $5,988. Two extra members at $29 add $696, serial tracking at $39 adds $468, and onboarding is $499. Lots, API access, the B2B portal and unlimited locations are included. First year: $7,651. Max at $8,388 plus onboarding only pays off past about 15 people or when serials and extra seats stack up.
Does inFlow do demand forecasting?
Not in the sense most buyers mean. inFlow has reorder points with low-stock alerts, and a report that recommends reorder points from your sales history using an averaging period (90 days is its suggested start) and a safety stock percentage. You then set the points and raise purchase orders yourself. For forecasting that adjusts to trend and seasonality, inFlow points customers to StockTrim, a separate subscription priced by revenue band (about $298 a month for a $3M to $5M business).
That gap matters because it is the reason many inFlow accounts still run a reorder spreadsheet next to the system. Storekeeper is built for exactly that job: it forecasts demand per SKU, calculates reorder points from each supplier's lead time and flags dead stock from $49 a month, and the $149 Growth plan drafts the purchase orders by supplier across 5 locations and your sales channels. It works alongside inFlow or replaces it for sellers who mainly needed the reorder decision. The method is explained on the inventory replenishment software page, and the forecasting side on demand forecasting software.
inFlow pricing compared with its competitors
| Tool | Entry price | What limits the entry plan | Demand forecasting | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| inFlow Inventory | $99/mo annual ($129 monthly) | 2 members and 1 location; orders and integrations unlimited | Reorder point report; forecasting via StockTrim | Barcode-driven wholesalers and field service teams |
| Zoho Inventory | $29/mo annual ($39 monthly) | 500 orders a month, 3 users, 2 locations | No; manual reorder point with notification | Small sellers already in Zoho |
| Unleashed | $399/mo Core; $729/mo Pro | 100 sales orders a month, 3 users, 3 integrations | AIM $149/mo on Core, included on Pro | Distributors on Xero or QuickBooks Online |
| Fishbowl | $229/mo annual (Essentials, 2 users) | User count; required implementation package | On the $729 Scale plan | QuickBooks distributors and light manufacturers |
| Katana | Custom annual quote (free up to 30 SKUs) | Price set per customer in an annual contract | Included on every plan | Makers with BOMs |
| Storekeeper | $49/mo ($39 annual) | 1 location on Starter; no order cap | Per-SKU forecast, reorder point and quantity on every plan; draft POs on Growth $149 | The reorder decision on top of your inventory or accounting system |
If you make products, inFlow Manufacturing is a separate line: Start Up $169, Growth $399, Scale $629 and Expansion $859 a month billed yearly ($199, $479, $759 and $1,029 monthly), each with everything in the matching Inventory plan plus bills of materials and work orders. Compare it with Katana pricing, and the distribution tools with Unleashed pricing and Zoho Inventory pricing. If you have already decided to move, the inFlow alternatives page compares the replacements by operation type.
Is inFlow worth the price?
inFlow is worth it for a wholesaler, distributor or field service team that scans barcodes daily, ships a few hundred to many thousands of B2B orders a month and wants a clean system with in-house support. It is weaker value for a large team spread over many locations on Lite or Core, and for anyone buying it mainly to decide what to reorder, since forecasting is not part of the product. Buyers whose real pain is chasing vendor confirmations and approvals, not stock levels, often get more from dedicated purchase order management software than from moving up an inventory tier for PO approvals.
Does inFlow have a free trial?
Yes. inFlow offers a 14-day free trial with unlimited features and no free plan after it. Run the trial with your real item list and one month of real orders, because the order count, the number of connected systems and whether you need lots or serials decide the plan far more than the feature list does.
Questions to ask inFlow before you sign
- If I am on an old Entrepreneur, Small Business or Mid-Size plan, when do I move to the new pricing?
- Is the $499 onboarding package required on my plan, and what does it cover?
- Does each extra location at $39 include sublocations and bins, or only on Core and above?
- Do add-ons such as lot numbers get the 20% yearly discount, or only the base plan?
- What renewal increase should I expect in year two?
The short version: inFlow prices a solid barcode-first system fairly for B2B teams, and dropping the order meter made Lite one of the cheapest full inventory systems with published prices. If your reorder decisions are the real problem, add the forecasting layer first and compare plans on our pricing page.
