Building your own government list costs 2.3 to 3.6 cents a contact, and the same plan sends the emails.
A prebuilt file is a one-time download that starts going stale the day you buy it. In Lead Finder you choose exactly which government contacts go in, add more whenever you need them, and the plan that pays for the credits also sends the emails.
| Way to get the list | What you pay | Cost per contact |
|---|---|---|
| Emailchaser Pro | $97 a month with 5,000 lead credits and 125,000 emails a month included | 2.3 cents |
| Emailchaser Starter | $47 a month with 1,500 lead credits and 5,000 emails a month included | 3.5 cents |
| Emailchaser extra credits | $33 per 1,000 credits, or $20 per 1,000 when you buy 5,000 or more; bought credits never expire | 2.3 to 3.6 cents |

Example campaign and email, invented for this page. The count is real.
Software vendors, contractors and consultants use government lists to reach the department heads and buyers who start a public purchase.
Public purchases start in many different offices: a city's IT director, a county's purchasing agent, a state agency's program manager. Anything above a set dollar amount usually goes through a formal bid or quote process, and the amount differs by agency. Filter by state and city to reach local governments, and by job title to reach the person who writes the requirements.
These are the questions people ask about government email lists.
How many government contacts can I reach with Emailchaser?
Lead Finder holds 1,464,124 people at US government offices and agencies with a verified work email, from a live count on 2 November 2026. The count changes as people change jobs, so the number you see in Lead Finder on the day you search is the one that counts.
Can I filter government contacts by state, city or company size?
Yes. Lead Finder filters by country, state and city, by seniority (for example owner, partner or director), by company size from 1-10 employees up to 10,001+, and by job title, revenue and the technology a company uses. Combine them freely, and the count updates before you spend anything.
How much does a government email list cost on Emailchaser?
Searching and counting are free. Each person you add uses 1 lead credit. Plans include 1,500 credits a month on Starter ($47), 5,000 on Pro ($97) and 10,000 on Max ($358), and extra credits cost $33 per 1,000, or $20 per 1,000 when you buy 5,000 or more. Checking each address is billed apart from credits, at $0.0017 a check. The 7-day free trial includes 500 lead credits.
Can an email skip a government bid process?
No. Above a spending limit that varies by agency, public purchases usually have to go through a formal bid, quote or contract process. Use email to introduce the company, learn which process applies and get on the agency's vendor list, then respond when the purchase is published.
Are the emails verified?
Lead Finder only returns people whose work email has a verified status. When you add them, Emailchaser checks each address again (on by default, $0.0017 a check, one or two checks an address), and an address that fails is dropped without using a credit.
Is it legal to send cold email to government contacts?
In the United States, the CAN-SPAM Act allows commercial email to business addresses when you identify yourself honestly, use an accurate subject line, include a postal address and honour every opt-out. Rules are stricter in some other countries, such as under GDPR in Europe.
