A MailerLite alternative that stays simple and stays affordable.
MailerLite raised its paid prices for new and existing customers in June 2026 and cut its free plan to 250 subscribers. If simple, well-delivered campaigns are the job, Sendonia does it for less, with every seat included.
Choose Sendonia if…
- Your bill went up in June and you mostly send campaigns.
- More than three people need to log in.
- You want sending on Amazon SES in the EU or the US, on your own domain.
Choose MailerLite if…
- You need automations, forms or a website builder in the same tool.
- Your list is under 250 subscribers and free matters most.
