Leadistry vs Lusha for UK lead generation
Lusha is a popular contact-data tool: paste a name or open LinkedIn, reveal an email or phone number, pay in credits. Leadistry starts one step earlier, finding the right UK companies on the Companies House register before any contact is revealed. The models are different enough that the right choice is usually obvious once you see them side by side.
| Leadistry | Lusha | |
|---|---|---|
| Starting paid price | £10/month (50 delivered leads) | $49.90/month for 400 credits; $32.45/month billed annually (Starter, as published July 2026) |
| Free tier | 10 free leads, no card | 40 credits/month free plan |
| Pricing unit | One delivered UK company record = 1 lead | Credits per reveal: 1 credit per email, 10 credits per phone number |
| Where prospects come from | Search the Companies House register by SIC, region, age, filing deadlines | You bring the names; Lusha reveals their contact details (extension, API, lists) |
| UK register signals | Filing deadlines, incorporation date, charges, no-website flag | Not offered; Lusha is contact-level, not register-level |
| Built-in email outreach | Included from £25/month | Engagement features exist on higher tiers; primarily a data tool |
| Contract | Rolling monthly | Monthly or annual; annual is cheaper per month |

When Lusha is the better choice
Pick Lusha if you already know exactly who your prospects are, live in LinkedIn all day, and mainly need to turn profiles into emails and phone numbers across global markets. Its browser extension workflow is quick, and the free 40-credit plan is an easy trial.
When Leadistry is the better choice
Pick Leadistry if your problem is finding the right UK companies in the first place. Lusha cannot tell you which plumbing firms incorporated last month in Manchester without a website; the Companies House register can, and Leadistry turns that register query into delivered, contactable leads with the email step already verified.
Frequently asked questions
What is the practical difference between Lusha credits and Leadistry leads?
A Lusha credit reveals one piece of contact data for a person you already identified: 1 credit per email, 10 per phone number (as published July 2026). A Leadistry lead is a whole delivered UK company record you did not have to find first: Companies House data plus verified website, business email and socials where discoverable. Failed lookups auto-refund.
Can Lusha find newly incorporated UK companies?
No, that is not what it is for. Lusha enriches people and companies you already know about. Finding companies by register signals (incorporated in the last 90 days, accounts due within 60 days, no website discoverable) requires Companies House register data, which is exactly what Leadistry searches natively.
Which is cheaper for UK prospecting?
For a solo UK prospector, Leadistry's £10/month for 50 delivered leads usually beats Lusha's $49.90/month Starter, because with Lusha you still have to source the company list yourself before spending credits on reveals. If you need phone numbers or non-UK contacts, Lusha's model fits better; Leadistry does not sell phone data.
