About MailerLite

MailerLite is a Lithuanian email marketing service that has become a favourite for small businesses and creators who find Mailchimp too expensive. It offers three editors (drag and drop, rich text and custom HTML), automations with a visual builder, segmentation, landing pages, a simple website builder, sign-up forms and pop-ups, paid newsletter subscriptions and digital product sales, and integrations with Shopify, WooCommerce and Stripe. The interface is clean and quick to learn. A free plan covers a small list with a monthly email cap; paid Comfort and Power tiers are priced by subscriber count and stay well below Mailchimp at most sizes. New accounts go through an approval review, which some users find strict, and support is mostly email and chat. Advanced automation and reporting are not as deep as ActiveCampaign or Klaviyo. For most small senders, it offers the best balance of features, design and price.

Best for: Small businesses and creators who want good design and automation at a low price.
