Free Local Business Leads
The offer is 25 free verified leads at signup, no card required, and no subscription to cancel later. They run through the same process as a paid campaign: each business checked against the target you describe, each email deliverability-tested, every cut itemized with its reason. The free tier exists so you can judge the product on your exact niche and city before spending anything.
What "free" usually means elsewhere
A lot of free-lead pages in this category are lead magnets for something else. Fill out a form, book a demo, and the "free leads" turn out to be a sample CSV or a gated report, not something you can run on your own target list. Others count "free" as a stripped-down trial: a handful of unverified rows meant to get you into a paid plan before you've confirmed the data is any good.
We built ours differently: the 25 free leads run through the exact same process as a paid campaign.
What's actually included in the free 25?
| Step | What happens |
|---|---|
| Discovery | Businesses matching your description are found for your exact niche and city |
| Fit check | Each business is checked against your described target, not just category + city |
| Email sourcing | A working email is located for each business that passes |
| Deliverability test | The email is tested before it counts toward your 25 |
| Receipt | Cut businesses are itemized with the reason, even in the free tier |
Nothing about the process changes once you move to a paid pack. The free tier isn't a demo; it's the product, sized to let you test it on your actual niche and geography before spending anything.
Why run the free tier before comparing prices?
You might be wondering why we'd point you at our own free tier as the way to comparison-shop. Every lead source claims accuracy, and we're no exception. The cheapest way to check the claim against your specific vertical and city is running the free 25 leads on the exact search you'd actually run and looking at what comes back, not reading more marketing copy. If the free batch turns up mostly wrong-fit businesses or the emails don't hold up, that's real signal before you've committed a dollar. If it turns up leads you'd actually send to, the paid packs are the same thing at volume. For a sense of what the process produces at larger scale, the published sample run breaks a full campaign out cut by cut instead of leaving rows missing without explanation.
The free run is also where the deciding gets visible. Because the receipt itemizes what was cut and why, you see not just 25 leads but how the field for your niche actually thinned out, which is worth more than any general accuracy claim when you're choosing a source.
After the free 25: prepaid packs, no subscription
Once the free leads are used, the model is prepaid credit packs, not a monthly plan. A flat 1 credit = 1 validated lead, in every mode:
| Pack | Price | Works out to |
|---|---|---|
| 240 credits | $29 | about $0.12 per validated lead |
| 750 credits | $79 | about $0.11 per validated lead |
| 2,000 credits | $199 | about $0.10 per validated lead |
There's no recurring charge sitting on your card after you stop using it. Buy a pack, use it across as many campaigns as you want, buy another when you need more, and stop whenever you want without cancelling anything first. Needing more than 2,000 leads at once is a sales conversation, not a bigger self-serve tier.

If a purchased list has burned you before
There's a pattern that comes up over and over in small-business and marketing communities, where someone buys a list, sends a campaign, and watches most of it bounce. It's a frustrating enough experience that people specifically warn each other away from buying lists sight-unseen afterward, and for good reason. A list that bounces heavily wastes more than the money spent on it, because it also damages the sending domain's reputation, which makes every future campaign from that domain land worse, verified or not.
We built the free tier partly to sidestep that risk before you've spent anything. Instead of trusting a claim on a pricing page, you're looking at 25 actual leads for your actual niche and city, checking whether the businesses fit and whether the emails hold up, and making the call to buy a pack (or not) based on what you saw.
Who tends to run the free tier first?
The heaviest users of the free run are teams whose targeting is specific enough that generic lists keep failing them. Cold-email agencies use it to sanity-check a new client vertical before quoting a campaign. Niche service sellers use it to test a signal-driven search, the way a review-generation agency targets established businesses with strong ratings and thin review counts, a prospect no directory sort surfaces. In both cases the free 25 answers the only question that matters up front: does this source find the businesses I actually mean?
How does this compare to public list-broker pricing?
Two verified-list brokers publish entry-tier rate cards: BookYourData lists $0.40 per contact at its smallest tier, dropping toward $0.10 only at 10,000+ credits (pricing), and LeadsPlease lists $0.60 per record for business email lists at its smallest tier (pricing). Listed rates as of July 2026, not a claim about either vendor's current promotional pricing. Our packs are listed above, so both sets of numbers are there to check directly. The structural difference is what each rate buys: broker records are pre-built and verified for deliverability, while a run here selects against your specific description at campaign time, with the cuts itemized.
FAQ
Is the free tier really free, or is there a catch? 25 leads at signup, no card required, no subscription. The leads go through the same fit check and email verification as paid leads. There's no gated report or demo booking required to access it.
Do I need to enter payment information to get the free leads? No. Signup for the free 25 leads doesn't require a card. You only enter payment details when you choose to buy a credit pack.
What happens after I use my 25 free leads? You can buy a credit pack (240, 750, or 2,000 credits) whenever you're ready. There's no automatic charge and no subscription that kicks in after the free tier runs out.
Can I use the free leads for any vertical or city? Yes, within US metros. Run your actual niche and geography, not a demo search, so the free batch tells you something real about coverage in your market. If your vertical returns fewer usable leads than expected, that's a coverage answer worth having before you buy a pack, not after.
