Script monitoring costs anywhere from a free plan to a custom enterprise quote, and most of the category is quote-only. Ours is free for 1,000 page views a month, then $99 for 100,000. We make Script Monitoring, so we're biased. Script Monitoring is one first-party tag on your payment pages that watches every script, in every session. Vendors meter on different things. Page views, like us and cside. Domains and payment pages, which Source Defense and DomDog cap by tier. Requests, for Cloudflare's add-on. Or a quote, scoped to flows, products, traffic and support. So check what the meter counts. Per-domain pricing multiplies fast across brands or regions. And because PCI scope is your payment pages, not your whole site, payment-page views are usually far smaller than total traffic. As published in November 2026: cside is free for 2,000 payment-page views, more than our thousand, then $99 for 100,000. Ours is the same ninety-nine, with unlimited domains. Pro also includes our Agentic Web Scanner, for pages you can't add a tag to. It scans your pages on a schedule and records the scripts each page loads. Nothing to install. Like any scanner, it can miss scripts that only target real visitors. Source Defense Essentials: $98 a month, one domain. DomDog: $999 a year, one domain. Report URI's PCI features: from $164.99 a month. Cloudflare's add-on: $0.099 per 1,000 requests. The rest are quote-based: Jscrambler, Feroot, Reflectiz, otto-js, DataStealth, Trusted Knight, and the Akamai, Imperva and F5 modules. That's normal, not a red flag. It just means one sales process per vendor. If you already pay for Cloudflare, Akamai, Imperva or F5, check what your plan includes first. A control you already own can cost little or nothing extra. Whoever you shortlist, ask four things. What exactly is metered. Whether domains or payment pages are capped. What happens when you go over. And how long evidence is kept, because assessments look backwards. On every Script Monitoring plan, free included, you get a weekly PCI evidence pack for your assessor. Try it on your own checkout today. Script Monitoring is free for 1,000 page views a month, and Pro starts at $99 a month, with a 14-day trial. Start for free at scriptmonitoring.com.
