Affiliate Program

Best for: Affordable Email Marketing

Last updated: July 25, 2026

Moosend does something most email platforms won't: it puts everything in one cheap plan. Automation, landing pages, forms, analytics, an AI writer and unlimited sends are all in the entry Pro plan from around $9/mo — nothing gated behind a pricier tier, which is the opposite of how Mailchimp works. You pay by subscriber count, not send volume, so frequent senders get real value. The main things to know: there's no forever-free plan (a 30-day trial instead), and transactional email is a fuzzy paid add-on rather than a bundled feature.

Pros

  • One of the cheapest full-featured email platforms — from ~$9/mo
  • No feature-gating — automation, landing pages & analytics all in Pro
  • Unlimited emails on every plan, billed only by subscriber count
  • Generous 30-day full-feature trial, no credit card
  • Strong, genuinely usable automation builder for the price

Cons

  • No forever-free plan — only a 30-day trial
  • Subscriber pricing ramps fast — 500→2,000 contacts is ~$9→$24
  • Transactional email is a paid add-on with unpublished pricing
  • Dedicated IPs, SSO & extra seats need custom Moosend+ / Enterprise
  • Fewer native integrations than bigger platforms

Frequently asked questions

The single Pro plan is priced by subscribers: ~$9/mo at 500 contacts, rising with your list — ~$24 at 2,000, ~$48 monthly ($38 annual) at 5,000, ~$315 at 50,000. Annual saves 20%, six-monthly 15%. Above Pro: custom-priced Moosend+ (add-ons) and Enterprise (high-volume).
No permanent free plan, but the trial is generous: 30 days of full Pro access, no credit card — longer than most rivals, enough to build real campaigns and automations. Use it as a proper evaluation, then move to Pro if it fits, since there's no free tier to fall back on.
Almost everything — the main selling point. Pro includes unlimited campaigns and sends, the full automation builder, landing pages, forms, analytics, an AI writer and 5 user accounts, with nothing locked behind a higher tier. Unlike Mailchimp (which gates automation to pricier plans), Moosend's cheapest paid plan is the full product; you only pay more as your list grows.
Moosend+ is a build-your-own middle tier — bolt on transactional email, dedicated IPs, SSO/SAML, audience discovery, custom reports and extra seats as paid add-ons. The catch is transparency: Moosend doesn't publish prices for these (transactional email included), so you request a quote. If transactional email for receipts is essential, budget for it as an extra on top of Pro.
On price and value, Moosend wins for most small businesses — dramatically cheaper at the same list size, and it includes automation in the base plan where Mailchimp reserves it for Standard/Premium. Mailchimp has a bigger integration ecosystem and brand familiarity. But for full-featured email with automation at the lowest sensible price, Moosend delivers far more per dollar.
Small and mid-sized businesses, e-commerce and budget-conscious marketers who want unlimited sending and real automation without enterprise pricing — especially frequent senders, since you pay by list size, not volume. Weaker fit if you need polished, transparent transactional email, many native integrations, or a permanent free plan rather than a trial.
