An estimate, not a quote. List prices excluding tax, checked 21 Oct 2026 on zapier.com/pricing (Professional tiers) and make.com/en/pricing (Core: $9.00 a month billed annually or $10.59 billed monthly, for 10,000 credits). For other volumes the calculator scales the Core price linearly, which is a simplification: confirm the exact price before you buy.
Official prices are in US dollars. GBP figures are estimates converted from those list prices with ECB euro reference rates (USD: 1 € = 1.1234 $ on 21 Oct 2026; GBP: 1 € = 0.83728 £ on 23 Oct 2026). Prices exclude sales tax and VAT.

Two ways to count the same workflow
A workflow with one trigger and three actions counts as 3 tasks on Zapier and 4 credits on Make. That is where the calculator’s 1.33 credits per task comes from: what changes your bill is the price of each unit.
Zapier
3 tasks
Make
4 credits
Zapier counts tasks
Every successfully completed action is a task. The trigger, filters and Paths do not count.
Make counts credits
Every module action uses credits, usually one. Routers and error handling do not use any.

Frequently asked questions
Is Make always cheaper than Zapier?
Not always. It depends on how many actions your workflow has. With the calculator’s assumptions Make comes out cheaper at every volume we show (750 to 100,000 tasks), but a workflow with many iterations uses more credits per task. Adjust the factor and check it against your own data.
What counts as a task on Zapier and a credit on Make?
On Zapier, each successfully completed action counts; triggers, filters and Paths do not. On Make, each module action uses credits, usually one; routers and error-handling modules do not.
Can I import my Zaps into Make?
NexoFlujos does not offer automatic conversion: workflows are rebuilt in Make’s visual editor. The pack includes an inventory to plan the move and check usage before you migrate.
What does Make’s free plan include?
1,000 credits a month and the visual editor with routers and filters. On the free plan the minimum interval between runs is 15 minutes.
Where does Make process my data?
It depends on the data zone of your Make organisation: the European zones (eu1.make.com and eu2.make.com) host account data in the EU region, the US zones (us1 and us2) in the United States. You can see yours in your dashboard URL. According to Make, some AI features may process data outside the EU regardless of zone. Before you sign up, read the data processing agreement (DPA) Make includes in its terms: you sign it directly with Make, not with NexoFlujos.
Do the prices include tax?
No. They are list prices excluding sales tax and VAT, checked 21 Oct 2026. Confirm them on the official pages before you buy.
Do you charge for the page or the pack?
No. The pack is free. NexoFlujos may earn a commission if you sign up for Make through our affiliate link, at no extra cost to you. The link to Zapier is not an affiliate link.
