Basin pricing · Formbackend pricing

Stronger spam tools on Pro

Better filters for public forms—beyond the basics on cheaper plans.

Email that looks like your brand

Growth for logo and colors. Pro for fully custom emails.

Multi-step on Agency

Capture partial answers when people bounce halfway through longer forms.

Peers… until spam and email get serious

Pick Formbackend if Simple ($5) or Freelancer ($14) already covers you—especially if their first-month refund matters. Pick Basin when you expect spam, want emails that match your brand, or need Agency multi-step / incomplete form capture.
