Bugcrowd Pentest Pricing in 2026

Bugcrowd’s website is quote-only, but its own AWS Marketplace listing is not. There, Standard Pen Tests sell at fixed 12-month prices from $5,000 (Small) to $15,000 (Large), with cloud and mobile units and two vulnerability disclosure plans alongside. Bug bounty and the customised Plus Pen Test are still quoted.

What a standard unit includes

  • Launch: within three business days.
  • Reporting: a platform-generated report and the PTaaS dashboard for real-time findings.
  • Retesting: web app, network and API tests include 12 months of retesting with one report update.
  • Customisation: not in the standard units. Bugcrowd says to contact it about a Plus Pen Test for customised testing.

What stays quote-only

The listing marks Managed Bug Bounty “Contact us for pricing” and sends customised testing to a Plus Pen Test quote. On bugcrowd.com/bugcrowd-pricing, every product, from Pen Test as a Service and Red Team as a Service to Attack Surface Management and the Savant products, goes through a quote form, with Bugcrowd promising “a cost outline tailored to your unique requirements”.

Where Bugcrowd sits: PTaaS with fixed units

Bugcrowd calls its pentest offer Pen Testing as a Service, which puts it on the PTaaS side of our PTaaS vs traditional consulting split, but its standard units behave like fixed-price packages: a set scope for a set price.

For comparison, Synack lists package starting prices of $4,181, $10,283 and $27,120, while HackerOne publishes no price for its pentests.
