Frequently asked questions
What does EmbedSocial cost?
Pro is €29/month, Pro Plus €49 and Premium €99, billed monthly, with 20% off yearly. Pro includes 3 sources and 5,000 views a month. Prices checked on embedsocial.com in September 2026.
Is EmbedSocial a testimonial tool?
It is mainly a way to display social posts and reviews you already have. Its pricing page centres on sources, views and social listening rather than collecting new testimonials.
Should I use both?
Some teams do: EmbedSocial for an Instagram or review feed, and a testimonial tool for collecting and showing customer stories. If testimonials are the goal, one tool that collects and displays them is simpler.
