People bring Meetup in for finding local groups and events around a shared interest, organising a recurring in-person group, running online events alongside physical ones, growing a community by drawing on meetup's existing member base. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Meetup are worth a look before you commit to a tier.

Before you pay for Meetup
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: not published on the record we hold. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare Meetup against the tools that do have one before committing.
Meetup runs on web, ios, android, and is published by Meetup LLC of New York, New York. The full record is on the Meetup review, and the rest of the category is under best events tools.
