Axeptio is essential for sites collecting data and requiring GDPR/CCPA compliance; less critical if zero third-party tracking.
About
In practice. What you can do with Axeptio.
Axeptio configures and deploys a GDPR and CCPA compliant cookie consent banner, customisable without development work. A genuine free plan covers sites under 200 visitors a month, and the Small plan starts at 29 euros a month up to 5,000 page views.
The thing to watch is the width of the traffic tiers. Going from 80,000 to 120,000 monthly page views moves the bill from 29 to 69 euros in one step, with no intermediate tier.
For a freelancer or a small business with modest traffic, Axeptio remains one of the more accessible options in the consent management market, with a real free tier to start on.
