There is no public Angi rate card for pros. Its 2025 annual report says lead prices vary by service, product and location, and that pros pay for each match even when they don't win the work. A software vendor reports roughly $15 to $85 per lead, and calls that an estimate, not an Angi rate. The number that matters is your cost per booked job, which you can only get from your own records.
Key takeaways
- Angi publishes no per-lead price list; its 10-K says prices depend on the service, the product and the location.
- Pros are billed for every consumer match, including the ones they don't win, and Angi's help center says even leads you never open are charged.
- U.S. lead fees brought Angi $587.1 million in 2025, 57% of its total revenue.
- Ranges like $15 to $85 per lead come from third parties, not from Angi.
- Angi applies approved lead credits to future charges, and they lapse after six months if unused.
- Angi's revenue per lead rose 1% in the second quarter of 2026, while its total revenue fell 11% to $248.0 million.
New in this update: Angi's second-quarter 2026 results, its help-center rules on monthly budgets, weekly billing and unopened leads, and its new limit of five pros per request. The credit rules were re-read the same day and have not changed since our October 7 update.
What does Angi say about lead prices?
Very little. Angi has no public rate card for pros. The most authoritative description of how the money works is in Angi's Form 10-K for fiscal year 2025, the annual report it files with the SEC. Three lines in it matter to anyone deciding whether to buy.
First, the fee is for the match, not the job. The report describes lead revenue as fees paid by pros for consumer matches "regardless of whether the Pro ultimately provides the requested service." If the homeowner goes with someone else, hires a cousin, or never answers the phone, you still paid.
Second, the price moves. Angi writes that lead revenue varies with several factors, including "the service requested, product experience offered, and geographic location of service." A roof replacement lead in one metro and a gutter cleaning lead in a small town can carry very different prices, and Angi does not say what either costs.
Third, there is more than one way to buy. The 10-K lists the offerings pros used in 2025: full-priced leads within a monthly budget, discounted leads in a subscription package, double opt-in leads bought one at a time, and pre-priced offerings. It also says the membership package includes access to consumer referrals "for which additional fees are generally paid", so a membership and the leads are separate charges.
Angi's help center says the same thing in plainer words. Its billing FAQ (March 5, 2026) says lead pricing varies with the task, the homeowner's location and demand for the work, and its leads FAQ says unopened leads are billed too.
How does Angi bill you from week to week?
The help center fills in the mechanics the annual report leaves out:
- A monthly budget. According to the monthly budget article (August 14, 2026), a budget automatically accepts leads that match your services and location, and it resets each month on the date your account was approved.
- Opportunities on top. Requests you accept or show interest in from the Opportunities tab are billed separately, on top of your monthly budget.
- Weekly charges. The billing FAQ says pros without an annual agreement are billed every week: Wednesdays if a bank account is the main payment method, Fridays for a card. Annual subscribers are billed monthly on their agreement date.
- Annual subscribers call to change things. The budget article tells pay-per-lead pros to use the Update monthly budget button, and tells annual subscribers to call its support team instead.
- No more than five pros. The leads FAQ caps each homeowner request at five pros, so the homeowner you paid for may be talking to four other companies.
Put those together and the budget covers automatic leads only. Anything you accept from the Opportunities tab is billed on top of it, so add both when you total a month.
How much do pros spend on Angi leads in total?
We can't see your invoice, but we can see the total. In 2025, Angi reported U.S. lead revenue of $587.1 million, which was 57% of its $1,030.5 million in consolidated revenue. Its auditor described that revenue as "comprised of a significant volume of low-dollar transactions." The same report counts about 122,000 average monthly active pros in 2025, down from 152,000 in 2024.
| Year | Angi U.S. lead revenue |
|---|---|
| 2023 | $781.1 million |
| 2024 | $606.6 million |
| 2025 | $587.1 million |
The 2023 figure comes from Angi's 10-K for 2024, which reports the same line as consumer connection revenue. Most of that decline came between 2023 and 2024, when lead revenue fell about 22%. In 2025 it fell another 3%. That was the year Angi moved nearly all experiences in its domestic business to homeowner choice, where consumers are connected only with pros they select instead of being matched automatically. The 10-K says total U.S. revenue fell 14% in 2025, mainly because of a 72% decrease in Network revenue that it attributes to that change. For a pro, the practical point is that per-match lead fees were still Angi's largest revenue line in 2025.
The slide continued into 2026. Angi's results for April to June 2026, in an earnings release the company filed on August 4, 2026, show:
| Measure | Q2 2026 | Change from Q2 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Total revenue | $248.0 million | Down 11% |
| U.S. revenue | $215.4 million | Down 12% |
| Service requests | 4.311 million | Down 6% |
| Leads | 4.838 million | Down 13% |
| Average monthly active pros | 106,000 | Down 17% (from 126,000) |
| Revenue per lead | Not stated in dollars | Up 1% |
That last line is the closest thing to a price trend Angi publishes. It is an average across every trade and market, so it says little about your own price, but it does say Angi collected slightly more per lead while sending out fewer of them. The release also reports a $235.2 million non-cash impairment and a quarterly net loss of $230.7 million, and says Angi began testing an AI follow-up agent, AI Front Desk, in July 2026.
What do pros and third parties report paying?
Since Angi does not publish prices, every per-lead figure you see online comes from somebody else. Treat these as reported ranges, not quotes.
- Housecall Pro, a field-service software company, reported in 2026 that Angi leads run about $15 to $85 per lead, with a membership of about $300 a year. It calls these commonly reported estimates, not guaranteed rates, and notes that Angi does not publish official pricing.
- The FTC's 2022 complaint against HomeAdvisor, Inc. (which the complaint says also did business as Angi Leads) gave one historical number in public: an annual membership fee of $287.99 on top of each lead. The complaint's per-lead price range is redacted. It also said Exact Match and Instant Booking leads cost 50% more than Market Match leads for the same project type and location.
The complaint's figures describe HomeAdvisor's pricing as of its 2022 filing, so use them as history. The honest answer for 2026 is that your price depends on your trade, your ZIP codes and the product you choose, and you will only learn it from your own account. If you are reading this before signing up, ask the sales rep for the expected price per lead for your exact service list and service area, in writing.
Useful questions for that call: Which of the offerings in the annual report am I being sold? Is there a monthly minimum or a contract term? What happens to my budget if I pause? Which service categories will I be charged for, and can I remove the ones I don't want? How many pros will be matched to the same request, given Angi's stated limit of five? Write the answers down next to the date and the rep's name.
In the FTC case behind those older figures, the agency alleged that HomeAdvisor misrepresented the quality and source of the leads it sold. HomeAdvisor settled, and in April 2023 the FTC approved a final order that included up to $7.2 million for redress and barred false or misleading claims about its leads. For the background, see our plain-English summary of the HomeAdvisor settlement.
Can you get money back for a bad Angi lead?
Sometimes, as a credit. Angi's help article on requesting a lead credit (updated August 2026) sets these conditions:
- The lead is less than 45 days old.
- You attempted to call the homeowner within 24 hours.
- Your account is in good standing with no overdue balance, and you do not have an annual subscription.
- The reason is on the list: invalid contact information, a location outside your ZIP codes, a service you don't offer, a duplicate within 45 days, or a charge while your leads were paused.
Approved credits are applied automatically toward future lead charges (the article describes no refund to your card), and they expire if you don't use them within six months of the date they are issued. Notice what is missing from that list: a homeowner who never calls back, picks a cheaper pro, or was only gathering prices. Those are normal outcomes of buying leads, and they are paid for.
Every time you request a credit, note the date, the lead, the reason and the result. A month of that log tells you how much of your spend is recoverable and how much is simply the cost of a lead that didn't close.
How do you work out what an Angi job really costs you?
Price per lead is the wrong number to stare at. A $40 lead that closes one time in ten costs more than a $90 lead that closes one time in three. What you want is the cost to acquire one paying job. Here is how to get it from a month of your own records.
- Add up everything you paid Angi for the month. Lead charges, membership or subscription fees, any add-ons. Subtract credits you actually used.
- Count the leads you received. Every one, including the bad ones.
- Count the jobs you booked from those leads. Only jobs that were done and paid. A quote is not a job.
- Divide total spend by jobs booked. That is your cost per job from Angi.
- Compare it with the gross profit on a typical job, not the ticket price. If a $600 job leaves you $250 after labor and materials, a $180 acquisition cost leaves you $70.
A hypothetical month, to show the math (these numbers are invented for illustration): you pay $1,200 in lead fees plus a $25 monthly share of a membership, use $90 in credits, receive 30 leads and book 5 jobs. Your spend is $1,135, your cost per lead is about $38, and your cost per job is $227. The second number is the one that decides whether this channel pays.
Two costs never show up on the Angi bill. One is the time spent calling, texting and quoting leads that go nowhere. The other is that the homeowner relationship started on someone else's platform. If you want to run your own numbers, our lead cost calculator does this arithmetic, and this guide to cost per job walks through comparing channels.
What should you do with that number?
If your cost per job is comfortably below your profit per job and the calendar needs filling, buying leads can be a sensible bridge. Some new companies start that way. The risk is staying there. The moment you stop paying, the leads stop, and unless you kept those customers in your own records, the platform was the only thing connecting you to them.
The way out is gradual. Put every Angi customer into your own customer list. Ask each one for a Google review. Send them a reminder next season from your own email. Build a website and Business Profile that bring in calls you don't pay per head for. Over time, the share of jobs coming from owned channels goes up and the lead budget can come down. Our own your leads page lays out that system, and a free system quote will show where your current jobs are actually coming from.
Frequently asked questions
Does Angi charge you if you don't get the job?
Yes. Angi's 2025 annual report says the fee for a consumer match applies even if the pro never provides the service. Only specific problems, such as invalid contact details or a lead outside your area, qualify for a credit.
Is there an Angi price list for contractors?
No public one. Angi says lead prices vary by the service requested, the product used and the location. Ask a sales rep for expected prices in your trade and area before you commit.
Do Angi lead credits go back to my card?
According to Angi's help center, approved credits are applied toward future lead charges and expire if unused within six months.
Is the Angi membership fee separate from lead costs?
Yes. Angi's 10-K says the membership package includes access to consumer referrals for which additional fees are generally paid.
Does Angi charge for leads I never open?
Yes. Angi's leads FAQ says a lead is charged whether you open it or not, and whether or not you reply. Opportunities you accept are billed on top of your monthly budget.
