Beehiiv Pricing
Beehiiv · Marketing & Email
Newsletter platform for creators positioned as the alternative to Substack, ConvertKit, and Mailchimp. Distinctive for its founder pedigree (Morning Brew's co-founders and early employees) and features that generalist tools lack: built-in referral programs, ad network, and 3D analytics. Priced free-$99/mo up to 100K subscribers. Popular with newsletter operators building media businesses (not personal newsletters).
In other words, Beehiiv is worth it for newsletter creators (both hobbyist and full-time) who want built-in monetization (paid subs, sponsorships, referrals) plus growth tools baked in — not just ESP-style sending. Launch (free) covers up to 2,500 subscribers; Scale unlocks referrals + custom domains; Max adds AI writer and premium features. Very easy setup, purpose-built for newsletters. Native integrations with Stripe, Zapier, and analytics platforms. Downside: less enterprise email automation than Mailchimp/Klaviyo, and templates feel more constrained than Substack's editorial polish.
