# HubSpot Seat Types: GTM, Ops, View-only and Developer

 Marek Kujda · 2 Nov 2026

On HubSpot’s seats-and-credits pricing, seats are how you give people access to HubSpot, and the seat type follows each person’s role. This guide explains the GTM, Ops, View-only and Developer seats, how to choose the right one for each person and what each seat costs by edition. For how seats fit with editions and credits, start with our [guide to HubSpot seats-and-credits pricing](https://primeb2bservices.com/en/blog/hubspot-seats-and-credits-pricing-a-guide-for-emea?hsLang=en).

## Four seat types at a glance

The paid seats are the GTM Seat and the Ops Seat, and the View-only Seat and the Developer Seat are free.

| Seat | Who it is for | Cost |
| --- | --- | --- |
| GTM Seat | Marketing, sales and service teams | Paid |
| Ops Seat | Operations users who support customer-facing teams | Paid |
| View-only Seat | People who only need to see data | Free |
| Developer Seat | Developers building on HubSpot | Free |

You can mix seat types in one account: for example, marketing, sales and service staff on GTM Seats, the people who run the system on Ops Seats and managers who follow the numbers on View-only Seats.

## Which seat does each person need?

The deciding factor between the paid seats is whether the person works with customers. In practice:

- **GTM Seat** for marketers, salespeople, service agents and customer success managers who run campaigns or work with customers in HubSpot every day.
- **Ops Seat** for people who build workflows, reports and dashboards, manage users or keep the data in shape, on Professional and Enterprise.
- **View-only Seat** for managers and stakeholders who follow dashboards and records without changing anything.
- **Developer Seat** for developers who build apps and integrations on HubSpot’s developer platform.

## What each paid seat includes

### Ops Seat

The Ops Seat gives access to selected automation, reporting and governance features and is meant for operations users who support customer-facing teams. It covers reporting and dashboards, automation tools, user and team management, Breeze Assistant and data enrichment. It also covers custom reporting, workflows, Data Studio, integrations and data sync, segments, the Data Agent, custom agents, permission sets and CRM import and export. It suits the people who set HubSpot up and keep it running for everyone else.

### GTM Seat

The GTM Seat gives full access to the platform, with marketing, sales and service tools, Breeze Assistant and Smart CRM, and it includes Ops Seat access. On top of the Ops Seat it adds the customer-facing tools: the Sales Workspace, Help Desk, the Customer Success Workspace, quotes, playbooks, customer feedback and the knowledge base. Ops Seat users can view these tools but not work in them: to connect an inbox, make calls, share meeting links, run sequences or create quotes, a person needs a GTM Seat.

For both seats, what you can use also depends on your edition: workflows need Professional or Enterprise, and Help Desk, the Sales and Customer Success workspaces and sequences come with Professional and Enterprise. The [edition comparison](https://primeb2bservices.com/en/blog/hubspot-starter-vs-professional-vs-enterprise-emea?hsLang=en) shows what each edition adds.

Two rules shape the mix of seats: every account has at least one GTM Seat, with further seats as GTM or Ops Seats, and the Super Admin needs a GTM Seat too.

## Seat prices by edition

All seats are priced by the edition you buy:

| From, per seat / month | Starter | Professional | Enterprise |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| GTM Seat | €20 | €100 | €175 |
| Ops Seat | Not available | €50 | €50 |

On Starter the only paid seat is the GTM Seat, up to a maximum of 10 paid seats. On Professional and Enterprise an Ops Seat costs less than a GTM Seat, so giving each person the seat that matches their role keeps the budget in line with how your team works. You can buy as few seats as you need, with no minimum, and Professional and Enterprise allow more than 10 paid users.

### Monthly or annual billing

The table above shows the prices in HubSpot’s Product & Services Catalog. On HubSpot’s pricing page, the price per seat depends on how you are billed:

| Pricing page, per seat / month | Starter | Professional | Enterprise |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Billed monthly | €10 | €100 | €175 |
| Billed annually | €7 | €90 | €175 |

On Starter, both are limited-time prices: 50% off when billed monthly and 65% off when billed annually. On Professional, annual billing lowers the price per seat, and on Enterprise the price is the same either way.

## Free seats: View-only and Developer

View-only Seats let people view the data in the account without making changes, and they are free and unlimited on Starter, Professional and Enterprise. That makes them a good fit for leaders who want to follow pipeline and service dashboards.

A Developer Seat is free and gives access only to the developer platform, so your developers can build and maintain integrations without taking up a paid seat.

## Adding, reassigning and reducing seats

Start with the people who need HubSpot from day one and add seats as the team grows. Seats assigned to users can be reassigned to other people rather than removed, and a lower seat count is billed from the start of the next subscription term. When someone leaves or changes role, their seat can go to a colleague.

The [purchase planning checklist](https://primeb2bservices.com/en/blog/planning-a-hubspot-purchase-seats-and-credits-checklist?hsLang=en) helps you count seats by role before you request a quote.

## Frequently asked questions

### What is a GTM Seat in HubSpot?

The paid seat with full access to HubSpot, meant for marketing, sales and service, which also includes Ops Seat access. It adds the customer-facing tools, such as the Sales Workspace, Help Desk and the Customer Success Workspace, which come with Professional and Enterprise.

### What is the difference between a GTM Seat and an Ops Seat?

The Ops Seat covers selected automation, reporting and governance features; the GTM Seat adds the customer-facing tools on top. Choose by whether the person works with customers.
