How Much Does Wanderlog Pro Cost? (2026 Pricing)

What Wanderlog Pro costs in 2026

The headline number: $39.99 per year, billed annually. Wanderlog’s pricing page currently shows that figure, and the standard list price has been $49.99 — so the $39.99 you see is the discounted rate, not a mistake or a per-month figure.

There is no per-month plan to pay into instead, and no lifetime purchase. The free tier has no time limit, which matters: you can plan several trips on the free version before the renewal question ever comes up.

Plan	Price	What you get
Free	$0	Unlimited trips, collaborative planning, map-based itinerary, unlimited places
Pro	$39.99/year (list $49.99)	Everything free, plus offline maps, route optimisation, Google Maps export, Gmail auto-import, AI assistant, unlimited attachments

Two things to notice. First, the gap between free and Pro is not “the app” versus “a teaser” — the free tier is a real planner. Second, the paid features cluster around one situation: being away from your connection. Offline maps, exports and import all become useful when you are mid-trip and not at a desk.

What the paid tier unlocks, feature by feature

The free tier already gives you unlimited trips, a shared map you can plan on together, and collaborative editing. That covers the whole planning phase for most people.

Pro adds:

• Offline maps. The map keeps working with no signal. This is the feature people discover they need most — a day in a national park, a rural road trip, or a foreign country where you do not want to burn data.
• Route optimisation. It reorders your day-by-day stops to minimise backtracking. For a two-day city trip it is a nicety; for a road trip with a dozen stops it saves real time.
• Google Maps export. Get your itinerary into a mapping app that handles turn-by-turn directions, rather than driving off a hand-built list.
• Automatic Gmail import. Bookings that arrive by email land in your plan without retyping them.
• AI assistant and unlimited attachments. Useful for the heavy planning load, less so for a weekend away.

None of these are essential for planning the trip while you are still at home. They are useful once you are travelling. That is the whole pricing story in one line: you are paying for the away-from-home part of the trip, not the planning part.

Is it worth it — the honest math

$39.99 a year is roughly $3.33 a month, or about $200 over five years if you keep it.

That is a fair price if:

• You travel with a group and the shared map does real coordination work, or
• You take enough trips a year that offline maps and route optimisation actually get used, or
• You travel internationally where data is expensive or unreliable.

That is a hard sell if:

• You plan one solo trip a year and are on Wi-Fi most of the time, in which case the free tier covers you and the renewal is paying for features you never open, or
• You only need the itinerary assembled, in which case you may want an app built for that job rather than paying for map features you do not use.

The free tier is the honest test: plan your next real trip on it. If you hit the offline wall or wish you could optimise a long driving day, the $39.99 is buying something you will use. If the trip ends and you never opened a Pro feature, the free tier was the right answer and the subscription was not.

Where it sits against the others

If your priority is simply a clean itinerary, budget, packing list and travel diary with no subscription, Travel Stories is $1.99 one-time — free for one trip with every feature included, and offline with no account.

The bottom line

Wanderlog Pro costs $39.99 a year (standard $49.99), billed annually, on top of a free tier that is genuinely usable. You are paying for the away-from-home features — offline maps, route optimisation and exports — not for the planning itself. Plan a real trip on the free version first; if you hit the offline wall, the price is fair. If you do not, the free tier is the right answer and the subscription was not.
