Circle Community Plans Pricing
Circle (circle.so) sells the platform on published monthly subscription tiers (prices shown are the annual-billing monthly rate). The developer platform is plan-gated: the Admin API and the Headless offering (Member API, Auth API, and the beta WebSocket surface) are available on the Business plan and above. Circle also charges a per-transaction fee on payments processed through the platform (2 percent on Professional, 1 percent on Business), which is separate from the subscription. There is no separate metered fee for API calls beyond the documented rate limit. The legacy Basic tier was retired in 2024, so the entry floor is now Professional. This is the community-software company at circle.so, NOT the USDC / crypto company.
