Best for

Solopreneurs, creators, and small-to-mid ecommerce businesses that want an affordable, easy-to-use platform with a real free tier, drag-and-drop automation, and native Shopify/WooCommerce syncing.

Worst for

Larger teams needing SOC 2 attestation, a dedicated IP below the custom-quote Enterprise tier, or deep predictive/AI-driven segmentation — MailerLite's own segmentation tooling is manual/tag-based rather than predictive.

Pricing

ModelContact-tiered No source Unverified
Free planYes — Up to 250 subscribers, 2,500 emails/month, 2 user seats, community-forum support only (14-day trial of premium features including email/live-chat support and higher limits). Source ↗ Verified 2026-08-18
Annual discount10%

10% off list price when billed annually, confirmed uniformly across every subscriber tier for both Comfort and Power plans (e.g. Comfort at 500 subscribers: $12/mo billed monthly vs $10.80/mo billed annually).

Source ↗ Verified 2026-08-18

Four plans: Free, Comfort, Power, Enterprise. Price and monthly send allowance both scale with a subscriber-count tier (not a flat plan fee). Comfort's monthly email allowance is 10x the ceiling of the subscriber tier; Power includes unlimited monthly emails subject to a fair-use policy; Free is capped at 2,500 emails/month. Billing is based on active subscribers (unsubscribed/bounced contacts don't count) within a monthly cycle. Enterprise (200,000+ subscribers) is quote-only and adds a dedicated success manager, account audits, deliverability support, and dedicated IP as an add-on. Full tiered pricing table (through 200,000 subscribers) is modelled in the pricing engine, not this file.

SMTP relay is a MailerSend capability (up to 5 SMTP users per domain), accessed via the same SSO relationship, not part of core MailerLite plans.

Deliverability toolsNot verified

MailerLite's own help content describes only general list-hygiene features (inactivity cleanup, double opt-in, reCAPTCHA on forms) rather than a dedicated deliverability toolset. Deeper tooling (spam-word/SpamAssassin checks, blocklist monitoring, inbox-placement prediction) is provided by MailerCheck, described as a separate sister product/company, not confirmed as a bundled MailerLite feature. See reports/needs-verification.md.
