Digital signage pricing guide

How Much Does Digital Signage Cost?

Digital signage software for businesses typically costs $8 to $20 per screen per month, so 10 screens run $80–$200 a month. A few tools offer free plans for one to three screens with limits. WidgitBoard charges one flat $19.99 a month ($190 a year) for unlimited screens. On top of software, each screen needs a display and a device to run it — often a TV you already own plus a streaming stick.

The short answer

  • Software: $8–$20 per screen per month on most per-screen plans (September 2026 published rates).
  • WidgitBoard: $19.99/month or $190/year flat, for unlimited screens.
  • Hardware: any Smart TV or a streaming stick works — no proprietary media player required.
  • At 10 screens, flat pricing saves $770+ a year versus the cheapest per-screen plan listed below.
  • Watch for extras: yearly-only rates, screen minimums, and paid add-ons.

What goes into the cost of digital signage

The total cost of a digital signage setup has three parts: the software that designs and manages content, the hardware that shows it, and the time or help needed to create content.

  • Software subscription

    The biggest ongoing cost. Most vendors bill per screen per month; WidgitBoard bills one flat rate for unlimited screens.

  • Screens

    A consumer TV works for most indoor uses. Commercial displays cost more but are built for all-day operation and brighter rooms.

  • Player device

    Browser-based software runs on a Smart TV's browser, an Amazon Fire TV Stick, a Raspberry Pi or a small PC. Proprietary players from some vendors cost extra.

  • Content and setup

    Templates and a drag-and-drop editor keep this low. WidgitBoard also offers a one-time custom board design service if you'd rather not build it yourself.

Per-screen pricing vs flat-rate pricing

Per-screen pricing looks cheap for one display and grows with every screen you add. At $10 per screen, a restaurant with a menu board, a bar TV and a patio screen pays $30 a month; a gym with 12 screens pays $120.

Flat-rate pricing costs the same whether you run one screen or fifty. WidgitBoard is $19.99 a month for unlimited screens, so from two or three screens up it usually costs less than per-screen plans — and the gap widens with every screen.

Costs to check before you buy

  • Yearly-only rates

    Several vendors publish their lowest per-screen price for yearly billing only; paying monthly costs more.

  • Screen minimums

    Some business tiers require a minimum number of screens, which raises the real entry price.

  • Free plan limits

    Free tiers usually cap screens, add branding, or remove features you'll need for business use.

  • Proprietary hardware

    If software only runs on the vendor's own player, budget for one per screen. Browser-based tools avoid this.

Is there free digital signage software?

Some vendors offer free plans — for example, Yodeck includes one free screen and OptiSigns allows up to three screens with branding. Free plans usually limit screens or features, so most businesses move to a paid plan.
