Moultrie Mobile plans explained: per camera, paid, and metered on video

The three tiers

Required, per camera, no free tier

That sentence is the whole difference between Moultrie and Spypoint. A Moultrie Edge cannot be run for $0; a Spypoint Flex can. And because the Edge line has no SD card, there's no local fallback if a plan lapses; images live in the app. The Edge's simplicity (built-in memory, USB-C, four-network Auto Connect) is real, and this is what it costs.

Video is the metered thing

Standard: 1,000 images and 10 videos a month. Unlimited: unlimited images and 50 videos. Extra videos are $1 per 50 on any plan; extra images are $4.99 per 500 on Standard. Moultrie AI on the Edge 3 Pro and Edge 4 "can switch from photos to HD video" when it detects a buck, which is a great feature that spends video credits. If you run Standard and the AI fires a lot, budget the $1 add-on. On-demand photo and video requests are listed as included features, not add-ons.

Pro Series and HuntPlan

Pro Series is Unlimited plus HuntPlan (property lines, wind forecasts, game plan, deer survey) at $22.99/mo per camera. Moultrie's page also notes "$7.99 per camera after first activation ($95.88 annually)" on the Pro Series line, which reads as a discounted rate for additional cameras on that tier; the page's wording is compact enough that we'd confirm it with Moultrie before running four cameras on it. HuntPlan is also sold standalone at $4.99/mo per account. For most people, Unlimited plus standalone HuntPlan ($17.98 for one camera) is cheaper than Pro Series unless you run several cameras on it.

Worked totals, 1 to 6 cameras

Monthly billing, multiplied. Moultrie shows no annual discount for these tiers. Computed from Moultrie's plan page, September 21, 2026.

Against Spypoint and Tactacam

Four cameras unlimited: Moultrie $51.96, Tactacam $49 (+$9 Xtra for HD), Spypoint $60 monthly or $40 annual (+HD packs). Four cameras cheapest tier: Moultrie $35.96, Tactacam $20, Spypoint $16 annual or $0 free. Moultrie is never the cheapest, and at the entry tier it's the most expensive by a wide margin. What it offers instead is on-demand included and the least fussy hardware. Cross-brand detail: plans for multiple cameras and Spypoint vs Tactacam vs Moultrie.

The Edge cameras on these plans

Once the plan math is settled, the hardware question is which Edge to hang it on: best Moultrie trail cameras ranks all five bodies on trigger speed, flash and power. And if what you are really asking is whether a particular network reaches your set, start at which carriers trail cameras use — the plan is sold by Moultrie, not by a phone carrier.
