Cost guide
What final expense inbound calls cost.
The price per call is only half the answer. What makes a call billable, how much you need to start and how many calls become policies decide what you really pay. Here is each part, with published prices checked October 19, 2026.

The short answer.
Published prices for final expense inbound calls start at $45 a call. Adlux charges $45 for each of your first 10 Meta calls, $55 for YouTube and $70 for Connected TV, then $50, $60 and $75. Final Expense TV charges $45 per connected call. Ringelo charges $60 per qualifying lead. AllCalls prices each call type separately in its portal.
Those numbers are not directly comparable, because each company charges for something slightly different. The next section explains why that matters more than the headline price.
What makes a call billable.
Every provider has a rule for when a call starts costing you money. This rule changes your real cost more than a $5 difference in price.
| Provider | A call becomes billable when |
|---|---|
| Adlux | It reaches 90 seconds (Meta and YouTube) or 60 seconds (Connected TV). Shorter calls are free. |
| Final Expense TV | It connects. Its pricing page does not state a minimum length. |
| Ringelo | The caller meets three criteria: age 50 to 85, an active checking or savings account, and interest in final expense coverage. No minimum length. |
| AllCalls | It reaches 25 or 80 seconds on those lines. Raw calls have less filtering and the lowest price. |
A short buffer, or none, means you pay for more hang-ups and wrong numbers. A longer buffer means the caller stayed on the line long enough to talk about coverage before you pay.
Adlux prices by source.
| Source | First 10 calls | After that | Charged once the call reaches |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meta (Facebook and Instagram) | $45 each | $50 each | 90 seconds |
| YouTube | $55 each | $60 each | 90 seconds |
| Connected TV | $70 each | $75 each | 60 seconds |
Each caller goes to one agent only. The price comes out of your wallet when a call becomes billable.
How much you need to start.
With Adlux, signup is free and the smallest amount you can add to your wallet is $225. The most you can add at once is $5,000. At first-10 prices, $225 covers 5 Meta calls, 4 YouTube calls or 3 Connected TV calls, or a mix.
Final Expense TV sells packages, and the smallest is $450 for 10 calls. Other providers ask you to fund or prepay an account; check the minimum before you sign up.
What a budget buys at Adlux prices.
These are billable calls at Adlux prices, using the first-10 price and then the regular price. Calls shorter than the buffer are free, so they do not use up your budget.
| Budget | Meta calls | YouTube calls | Connected TV calls |
|---|---|---|---|
| $225 | 5 | 4 | 3 |
| $500 | 11 | 9 | 7 |
| $1,000 | 21 | 17 | 14 |
You can also mix sources. Your money goes to whichever call types you select, and each billable call is paid from your wallet as it happens.
Per call, per lead or per transfer.
A price per inbound call pays for a conversation the caller started. A price per lead pays for a contact record, and you still have to reach the person. A price per transfer usually pays for a call that someone else started and then handed to you.
Each can make sense, but they are not the same product, so compare them by cost per policy rather than by the headline price.
Work out your cost per policy.
The number that matters is what you spend for each policy you write. Divide the price per billable call by the share of billable calls that become a policy.
The table below is arithmetic, not a result anyone promises. It uses a $50 call to show how much your close rate changes the answer. Use your own numbers in the cost calculator.
| If this many billable calls become a policy | Your cost per policy |
|---|---|
| 1 in 5 | $250 |
| 1 in 8 | $400 |
| 1 in 10 | $500 |
| 1 in 15 | $750 |
How to keep your cost per policy down.
- Set hours you can cover, and answer every call that comes in.
- Start with one source, then add others once you know how its callers convert for you.
- Listen to your recordings. They show where conversations stall.
- Follow up the same day with callers who need a second conversation.
- Track spend, applications and issued policies by source every week.
Other costs to count.
- Your time. You need to answer during the hours you choose, or turn calls off.
- Licenses and carrier appointments for every state you take calls in.
- Follow-up. Some callers need a second conversation before they apply.
- Bad calls. With Adlux, report it in your account. Our team checks every report, and you get a credit only if the review approves it.

Not with Adlux. A Meta or YouTube call is charged only once it reaches 90 seconds, and a Connected TV call once it reaches 60 seconds.
What is the minimum to start?
Adlux signup is free. You add at least $225 to your wallet before calls start.
Is there a monthly fee?
Adlux charges per billable call from your wallet. A top-up is credit for calls, not a monthly software subscription.
Why are inbound calls more expensive than aged leads?
You pay for a conversation the caller started, not a contact record you still have to reach. Compare cost per policy, not cost per lead.
