Sked Social stops selling approval add-ons on Grow: approvals now start at Accelerate

Verified: 2026-10-08, skedsocial.com/pricing.

Sked Social no longer sells approvals on its Grow plan. The plan comparison table on its pricing page now marks both “Internal approvals” and “External approvals” as “Not included” in the Grow column, with checkmarks only under Accelerate and Custom. When our sweep read the page on 2026-09-22, those Grow cells carried prices: “Add-on +US$500/yr” for internal approvals and “Add-on +US$1,000/yr” for external approvals with the no-login review portal. The FAQ answer on approvals, which in the archived 2026-09-16 copy said Grow came “with internal and advanced approvals available as paid add-ons”, now stops at “Grow includes post statuses and content previews.”

The plan data embedded in the page says the same in Sked’s own words: the add-on’s scope was narrowed “so the addon is no longer sellable to Grow (sked-essentials); accounts that already hold it keep it.” Both approval add-ons now apply only to Accelerate and Custom, where approvals are already included, so there is nothing left to buy. Plan prices did not move: Grow is US$58/mo billed annually (US$69 monthly) and Accelerate is US$166/mo (US$199 monthly). We fetched the page five times on 2026-10-08 and every copy matched.

What it means: a Grow team that needs sign-off now has to move up a plan. The cheapest route to internal approvals used to be Grow plus the add-on, US$58 + US$41.67 = US$99.67 a month on annual terms. It is now Accelerate at US$166, about 67% more. For client sign-off the gap is smaller, US$141.33 to US$166, and Accelerate also brings 6 users and 10 profiles. Grow customers who already bought an approval add-on keep it.

The change landed between 2026-09-22, the last time our sweep recorded the add-on prices on the page, and 2026-10-08. The Wayback Machine’s newest copy of the page, from 2026-09-16, still shows them. It is Sked’s second plan change in three weeks, after its Basic tier left the pricing page.
