MailerLite vs Mailchimp
Why MailerLite is a leading Mailchimp alternative
MailerLite is a user-friendly Mailchimp alternative for people who want reliable and powerful email marketing features at a fair price. Pay for the email tools you need instead of paying extra for features you’ll never use.
Fair pricing
MailerLite believes in transparent pricing and will notify you when you reach your plan’s limit. Another huge difference—you only pay for the subscribers you use even if they belong to multiple segments. And unsubscribed contacts are never counted!
