MailerLite and Kit (ConvertKit until 2024) are two of the most popular email tools for small businesses and creators. On the surface they look similar: both have drag-and-drop editors, landing pages, forms, automation and ways to sell digital products. Underneath, they\u2019re built for different people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MailerLite is a general-purpose marketing tool with strong design features and lower paid prices. Kit is built for creators whose email list is the business, with a huge free plan and better tools for selling and growing a newsletter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We compared them across eight rounds using the current plans and prices from both pricing pages. MailerLite renamed its plans this year (Growing Business is now Comfort<\/strong>, and Advanced is now Power<\/strong>), so older comparisons are out of date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Quick Answer:<\/strong> MailerLite wins our MailerLite vs Kit comparison 4\u20133.<\/strong> It’s cheaper once you pay ($49 vs $89 at 5,000 subscribers), has a more polished editor, includes a website builder and gives you 3 seats on Comfort. Kit<\/strong> (formerly ConvertKit) wins on its free plan (10,000 subscribers vs 250), built-in selling and list growth through Recommendations, so it’s the better pick for creators.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
