Why businesses switch from Kit (ConvertKit) to IGSendMail
Full business suite, not just newsletters
Unlimited contacts on every paid plan
Kit (ConvertKit) charges more as your list grows — and often bills you for unsubscribed and duplicate contacts. IGSendMail never charges per contact.

At 10,000 subscribers Kit (ConvertKit) runs about $119/mo. The same on IGSendMail is $19/mo — roughly $1,200 saved a year.
99% inbox deliverability, built in
Automatic SPF, DKIM, and DMARC, dedicated sending infrastructure, and built-in list verification keep your campaigns out of spam — tools Kit (ConvertKit) charges extra for or leaves out.
Free, done-for-you migration
Switch from Kit (ConvertKit) in under 24 hours. Import your lists, templates, and automations with zero downtime — we'll handle it for you.

ConvertKit is now Kit — what that means for your search
ConvertKit rebranded to Kit in 2025, so the same email marketing platform now shows up under both names depending on where you look. If you're comparing ConvertKit alternatives, you're comparing alternatives to Kit — same company, same subscriber-based pricing, new name on the invoice.
Where Kit and IGSendMail solve different problems
Both are marketing automation platforms at heart, but built for different jobs. Kit built its platform around individual creators: newsletters, a built-in Creator Network for cross-promotion, and tools for selling digital products and building landing pages without leaving the app. If your business runs on that creator-commerce model — courses, memberships, paid communities — Kit's all-in-one approach has real advantages, and IGSendMail doesn't try to compete there. We don't sell digital products or build landing pages.
IGSendMail is built around a different priority: sending a lot of email reliably, whether that's a welcome series, an abandoned-cart campaign, or a one-off email campaign to your whole list — without a per-subscriber bill that climbs every time your list grows. That shows up in the feature set above — a visual drag-and-drop workflow builder for automation, a subject line testing tool, abandoned cart recovery and RSS-to-email campaigns for stores and blogs Kit doesn't handle natively, click heatmaps, advanced reporting, and revenue attribution, and a built-in SMTP relay for transactional email (receipts, password resets, order confirmations) alongside your marketing sends. Kit's automation covers a solo creator's welcome sequence well; it gets harder to justify once you need advanced branching, revenue tracking, and email verification in the same platform instead of stitched together with add-ons.
Worth naming honestly: Kit has expanded into SMS marketing and push notifications as it grew past email-only. IGSendMail doesn't send SMS or push today — the platform is deliberately focused on getting email automation, deliverability, and reporting right, which is what's reflected in the comparison table above. If omnichannel messaging beyond email is a hard requirement, that's a real point in Kit's favor.
For a small business or growing team moving past a solo-creator newsletter, that trade-off usually runs the other way: one platform for email marketing, automation, and verification — with unlimited contacts on every paid plan — tends to matter more day to day than Kit's creator-specific extras.
Is there a free version of ConvertKit (Kit)?
Yes — Kit has kept a free newsletter plan through its rebrand, with a subscriber cap and fewer automation and reporting features than its paid tiers. That cap has moved more than once, so check Kit's current pricing page for the exact number rather than relying on an old screenshot.
IGSendMail's free plan covers up to 2,500 contacts with no time limit, and every paid plan — starting at $19/mo — removes the per-contact ceiling entirely instead of just raising it. You keep unlimited contacts whether your list is at 10,000 or 100,000.
How Kit compares to the other alternatives people consider
If you're weighing more than one option, here's the short, honest version — none of this is a substitute for testing a tool against your own use case:
- Mailchimp vs Kit — Mailchimp's automation is broadly comparable, but its per-contact pricing tends to climb faster than Kit's as a list grows. See the Mailchimp alternative breakdown for the numbers.
- MailerLite vs Kit — MailerLite is usually the cheaper of the two on a small list; Kit's edge is the deeper creator-monetization tooling MailerLite doesn't build for. Details on the MailerLite alternative page.
- Flodesk vs Kit — Flodesk charges a flat rate regardless of subscriber count instead of Kit's tiered pricing, which some solo creators prefer, though its automation and analytics are lighter than Kit's.
None of the three combine unlimited contacts with automation, deliverability tools, and transactional email the way IGSendMail's paid plans do — that gap is specifically what we built to fill. See what's included or check current pricing before you switch.
