Questions people ask
Which costs less, MailPoet or Newsletter Glue?
MailPoet is free for up to 500 subscribers and 5,000 emails a month, and its paid plans are priced by subscriber count. Newsletter Glue starts at $24 a month billed yearly for up to 25,000 emails a month, with unlimited subscribers.
Both are WordPress plugins. What is different?
MailPoet uses its own drag-and-drop email builder and is built around marketing and store emails. Newsletter Glue works in the WordPress block editor, builds an issue from your posts with Magic Glue, and publishes each newsletter as a post on your site.
Can I bring my subscribers from MailPoet?
Yes. Export your subscribers from MailPoet as a CSV file. If you send with Newsletter Glue, import the file in WordPress (how to import subscribers). If you use Newsletter Glue Connect, import it into your email provider.
Can I charge for my newsletter?
Yes. When you send with Newsletter Glue, you can send some newsletters only to paid subscribers (how it works). Newsletter Glue doesn’t take payments itself: your payment system, such as Stripe or a WordPress membership plugin, marks who has paid, and Newsletter Glue never takes a cut.
