Consorm: the point of comparison
Consorm is consent management software built in Quebec, designed first for Law 25 and ready for GDPR consent. The Discovery plan is free: 5,000 page views a month, one compliance scan and a fully working banner. The Growth plan costs $19 CAD a month, or $15 a month on annual billing ($180 a year), and covers 200,000 page views a month, up to 5 sites and 3 users. The Enterprise plan, custom priced, serves high-volume organizations.
The difference is less about price than approach: the banner drives your Google Tag Manager and blocks trackers before consent, every choice is timestamped in a record hosted in Quebec, and support answers from Quebec in English and French. No currency conversion, no tier surprises.
Axeptio pricing in detail
Axeptio charges per domain and per traffic tier: Extra Small at $7 USD/month for 2,500 visits, Small at $29 USD/month for 5,000, Medium at $69 USD/month for 100,000 and Large at $129 USD/month for 500,000. Annual billing takes 10 percent off, and the Agency and Enterprise plans are quote-only.
The thing to watch: every tier is tied to visit volume. A growing site moves up a tier, and the invoice follows. At 100,000 visits a month, Axeptio Medium costs $69 USD/month, about $97 CAD; Consorm Growth covers 200,000 page views for $19 CAD/month.
Best for: teams sold on the banner design, ready to pay more as traffic grows.
Didomi pricing in detail
Didomi publishes no prices: three packages (Essential, Advanced, Premium) are negotiated with the sales team, based on monthly unique visitors, with unlimited domains. Third-party analyses published in 2026 place agreements from a few hundred to a thousand euros and more per month depending on traffic.
The tool targets publishers and large organizations first: the TCF advertising framework, multichannel preference management, advanced governance. For a small or midsize business that needs a compliant banner, the sales cycle and the budget far exceed the need.
Best for: content publishers and large organizations living off programmatic advertising.
OneTrust pricing in detail
OneTrust publishes no prices: everything goes through a quote and a negotiated annual contract. Third-party analyses published in 2026 report the removal of the self-serve offer, a minimum commitment of about $10,000 USD per year and pricing now measured on traffic.
The same public data places the median agreement around $10,500 USD per year, with common deployments between $10,000 and $50,000 USD and more, implementation fees on top and renewals trending up. For a small or midsize business, that is several years of consent management spent on a single fiscal year.
Best for: multinationals with a dedicated legal team and a serious compliance budget.

Frequently asked questions
What is the cheapest consent management platform in 2026?
To get started, three tools offer a real free plan: Consorm (5,000 page views a month), Cookiebot (one domain with 50 subpages) and CookieYes (5,000 page views a month). On paid plans, Consorm Growth at $19 CAD a month for 200,000 page views is the only one billed in Canadian dollars; the others bill in euros or US dollars, before conversion and taxes.
How much does Cookiebot cost per month?
From 7 EUR (Premium Lite, 50 subpages) to 90 EUR per month (XLarge, more than 7,000 subpages), per domain. The plan moves up a tier automatically when the scanner counts more subpages, and every subdomain is billed as a separate domain.
How much does Axeptio cost per month?
From $7 USD (2,500 visits) to $129 USD per month (500,000 visits), per domain, with 10 percent off on annual billing. The price follows your traffic: a growing site changes tiers.
How much does OneTrust cost per year?
OneTrust publishes no prices. Third-party analyses published in 2026 report a minimum commitment of about $10,000 USD per year, a median agreement around $10,500 USD and common deployments between $10,000 and $50,000 USD and more, implementation fees on top.
Why do consent management platform prices vary so much?
Each vendor measures something different: Cookiebot counts subpages, Axeptio counts visitors, CookieYes counts page views with billed overages, CookieFirst enforces a soft cap, and Didomi and OneTrust negotiate per contract. To compare honestly, bring everything back to the same monthly volume and the same currency.
What should a compliant cookie banner actually do?
Regulators converge on the same requirements: block trackers before consent, make refusing as easy as accepting, offer per-category choices, allow withdrawal at any time and keep a timestamped record of every decision. Every tool in this comparison can approach that with the right configuration; Consorm applies these criteria by default.
Do the listed prices include taxes and currency conversion?
No. Each price is shown in the vendor's billing currency, before taxes. At July 2026 rates, 1 USD is worth about 1.41 CAD and 1 EUR about 1.60 CAD: expect 40 to 60 percent more once the invoice is converted to Canadian dollars.
What is the best alternative to these tools for a Canadian site?
Consorm is the only option in the comparison billed in Canadian dollars, hosted in Quebec and built first for Law 25 while covering GDPR consent: tracker blocking through your Google Tag Manager, a timestamped consent record and bilingual support, starting at $0.
