PR Gun vs. Business Wire (2026): Pricing and Fit

Pricing verified September 18, 2026. We use published vendor rate cards where available and label quote-only services as such. Prices and features can change; confirm the final total with the provider before ordering.

Pricing comparison

Business Wire publishes $475 for a 400-word U.S. domestic local release. Other current pricing requires a written quote, so we do not publish unsupported national, word-overage, or multimedia figures. Compare a quote for the exact scope with PR Gun’s published package scope.
