The short answer

On Zendesk's European pricing page, plans cost €25 per agent a month (Support Team), €69 (Suite Team) and €149 (Suite Professional) on monthly billing. Annual billing brings them to €19, €55 and €115.

The AI is extra past a small allowance: 5 automated resolutions per agent a month (10 on Professional), then €2.00 each pay-as-you-go or €1.50 committed. With 3 agents and the AI resolving 60% of 400 tickets, Support Team comes to €525 a month.

Pay-as-you-go resolutions at €2.00, 15 included for 3 agents. Committed resolutions at €1.50 would lower each Zendesk total, but by less than a quarter. Suite Team adds €132 a month for 3 agents at every volume.

How Zendesk charges: per agent, per month

Every Zendesk plan is priced per agent. A store with 3 people on Support Team pays €75 a month on monthly billing before any AI. Hire a fourth and the bill grows by €25, whether ticket volume changes or not.

Support Team covers email only. Suite Team adds messaging and live chat, voice and social channels, including WhatsApp. Suite Professional adds AI writing tools and lets you keep data in the EEA at no extra cost.

How much is the Zendesk AI?

Zendesk counts automated resolutions: conversations its AI agents solve with no person involved. Each agent brings 5 a month, or 10 on Suite Professional. You are billed only for resolutions that succeed.

Past the allowance, each resolution is €2.00 pay-as-you-go or €1.50 if you buy a commitment. On a store where the AI handles 240 tickets a month and 3 agents bring 15, that is 225 extra resolutions, or €450 a month pay-as-you-go.

Copilot, Zendesk's agent-assist add-on, costs €50 per agent a month, billed annually. It is included in Suite Enterprise + Copilot.

Trial, billing and data location

  • Trial: 14 days with Suite Professional features. There is no free plan
  • Annual billing: about 20 to 24% lower than monthly
  • EEA data center: free on Suite Professional and higher, not included on Team plans
  • Shopify: through the Zendesk app, which lets agents view, refund and cancel unfulfilled orders

How to keep a Zendesk bill down

If you stay on Zendesk, commit to resolutions once you know your volume, because €1.50 is a quarter less than €2.00. Stay on Support Team if email is all you need. And review seat count every quarter, because every agent costs money even in a quiet month.

If per-agent pricing is the real problem, look at a tool that bills tickets instead. Solvias charges per ticket you reply to, with Solvias AI included and seats free. See the full Solvias vs Zendesk comparison.
