How much does an offshore SDR cost in 2026?
Roughly $7-15 per hour for a dedicated offshore or nearshore rep - about $750-1,400 per month depending on hours and whether management is included. Full-service outbound agencies are a separate tier at roughly $4,000-12,000 per month per rep.
The gap between those two tiers is not talent quality. It's who owns the work. In the hourly tier you are renting a person; in the agency tier you are buying a managed campaign. Most of the confusion in this market comes from comparing a rate against a retainer as if they were the same purchase.

Which offshore SDR company is right for you?
Pick by what you are short of. If you're short of budget, go to the lowest hourly tier and accept the management load. If you're short of time, pay for a managed model. If you're short of an outbound function entirely, buy an agency retainer.
1. Virtustant - best for bilingual nearshore coverage
From $8/hr all-in, roughly $1,400/mo full-time, with LatAm reps and employer-of-record handling for contracts, payroll and compliance. Shortlists in about 48 hours and an average time to hire of three days. If you need Spanish or Portuguese fluency and heavy live calling in US time zones, this is the strongest fit on the list - and it is cheaper per hour than we are.
2. SDR Hire - best for lowest total monthly cost
$1,000-2,000/mo, drawing on $7-10/hour offshore talent, with a nine-day average build time and a 60-day performance guarantee that includes free replacement. The cheapest managed option here. Worth checking how much day-to-day supervision sits with you once the rep is placed.
3. The Remote Reps - best for breadth of roles at a low rate
$12/hr flat with a five-day hiring promise, staffing from Pakistan across an unusually wide role list - SDRs, marketers, PPC, legal assistants and more. They advertise a 100% money-back guarantee, SOC 2 protocols and screening from a large applicant pool. At $12/hr they undercut us by $3, and if raw rate is your deciding factor they should be on your shortlist.
4. Val Growth - best when you don't want to manage the rep
$15/hr, typically $750-1,050/mo at the 50-70 hours most SDR functions actually need, live in seven days. We are not the cheapest hourly rate on this page and we don't claim to be. What the rate buys is the supervision layer: our operators manage output, run weekly QA reviews, and swap the rep free from a managed bench if they underperform or leave. The GTM stack - Clay workflows, double-verified data at sub-1% bounce, Smartlead/Instantly infrastructure - comes pre-loaded. Choose us if the hidden cost you're trying to avoid is your own management time. See what's included →
5. CrewBloom - best for self-managed contractor sourcing
Roughly $9-15/hr as a contractor platform. You get access to vetted offshore contractors and you run them yourself - no supervision layer, no included tooling. Good if you already have a sales manager with spare capacity and just need bodies.
6. Martal Group - best for outsourced pipeline in complex B2B
Roughly $4,000-8,000+/mo. A full outbound agency rather than a staffing provider, with North American and hybrid teams, aimed at technical and enterprise sales motions. You are buying a campaign, not a seat.
7. Belkins - best for done-for-you appointment setting
From roughly $5,000/mo, with campaigns typically live in two to four weeks. Long-established, strong reputation for appointment setting, and everything - data, copy, sending, booking - is run on your behalf.
8. CIENCE - best for large multi-channel programmes
Roughly $5,000-10,000+/mo. Bigger, more process-heavy, with research, data and multi-channel orchestration in-house. Suits companies running outbound at real scale who want one vendor owning the whole motion.
9. memoryBlue - best for US-based onshore SDRs
Roughly $8,000-12,000+/mo per rep. Onshore US talent, which is the premium end of this market. If your buyers demand a US-based caller with a US accent and your deal sizes justify it, the cost difference can be rational - and no offshore option on this list competes on that axis.
Is a cheaper hourly rate always better?
No. The lowest rates generally mean you supply the management, tooling, data and quality control. The honest comparison is total cost of ownership: the rate, plus tools, plus the hours you personally spend supervising, plus what it costs to restart when a rep leaves.
A $8/hr rep who needs five hours of your time each week is not cheaper than a $15/hr rep who needs none - not if your time has any value. Equally, if you already employ a sales manager with capacity, paying for a supervision layer you won't use is waste. Work out which of those two situations you're in before you compare rates at all.
Frequently asked questions
How much does an offshore SDR cost in 2026?
Roughly $7-15/hr for a dedicated rep, about $750-1,400/mo depending on hours and whether management is included. Full-service agencies run $4,000-12,000/mo per rep.
What's the difference between an SDR provider and an outbound agency?
A provider gives you a dedicated person who works inside your team and you pay for their time. An agency runs campaigns on your behalf for a fixed retainer and owns the process rather than embedding a rep.
Offshore or nearshore?
Nearshore (LatAm) suits Spanish or Portuguese fluency and heavy live phone work in US hours. Offshore (South Asia) typically costs less for English-language email and LinkedIn work, and covers UK hours more comfortably.
