The Best Email Marketing Apps for Shopify in 2026

Every Shopify store gets the same pitch for email: it is the channel you own, unlike a social feed an algorithm can bury. What splits these apps is how the bill is built. Klaviyo and Mailchimp price by contact count with a generous free tier.

Omnisend and Brevo publish a flat starting price that undercuts both. Seguno and Sendlane bill through usage, Seguno per subscriber inside the Shopify billing system and Sendlane per email sent regardless of list size.

Shopify Email skips the third-party app and Drip and Privy sit in between, one ecommerce-only and priced high, the other a popup-and-email bundle priced low.

We read the current pricing page for each of the nine below, in September 2026.

Retailpresso data: Toolradar, the software directory we run, tracks 106 email marketing tools as of September 2026, and only 5 of the 10 tools on its top ranking publish a self-serve paid price rather than routing a buyer to a calculator or a sales call.

Klaviyo isn't in that top 10, but its own pricing page shows the same gap: no flat monthly figure for paid plans. Disclosure: Dupple's six sister newsletters (Techpresso, Cyberpresso, MarketingShot, Finpresso, Devshot and Aipresso) run on beehiiv, not any app ranked on this page.

An email marketing app for Shopify collects customer opt-ins, builds and sends campaigns and automated flows (welcome, abandoned cart, win-back, post-purchase) and reports revenue back against Shopify's own order data.

Every app below connects through the Shopify App Store or a direct integration, and most bill by contact count, email volume or a mix of both.

The number on the homepage is rarely the number you pay. Klaviyo and Seguno both show a low anchor price, then move to a calculator once you enter a real contact count, so the figure you see before signing up is not a quote for your list.

Mailchimp and Omnisend publish the full tier ladder instead, which makes a three-year cost easier to model before you commit.

The other split is what free actually includes. Klaviyo's free plan caps at 250 contacts and 500 emails a month, tight for a store with any repeat traffic.

Shopify Email's free allowance is ten times that, 10,000 emails a month, but only inside a paid Shopify plan you are already covering. Brevo is the only one here that is free by send volume, not by list size, which suits a small list that emails often more than a large one that emails rarely.

Six of the nine apps here publish a fixed number for their cheapest paid tier, listed in the table below; the other two, Klaviyo and Seguno, show a real free-plan price but move to a slider once you enter a contact count for the paid tiers, so we report their free plan in full and note that the paid figure is not a flat, publishable number today.

Brevo's pricing page applies a 10% discount by default for annual billing; we used the monthly list figure in the table below. Omnisend's Standard and Pro tiers show a 30% discount for a three-month prepay; the list price without that promo is what we quote.

Seguno's higher tiers (up to 25,000 subscribers) are set by a slider with no static published number past its entry point, so we report that entry figure only.

We verified every price on the vendor's own pricing page (see Klaviyo and Omnisend on Toolradar for standalone profiles) in September 2026.

Methodology: we read each app's current pricing page and, where public, its Shopify App Store listing, noted plan names, contact and send limits, free-plan caps and billing basis, and confirmed live status on the vendor's own site; no paid placements on this list.
