“I personally manage our campaigns and really enjoy the editor. The analytics are simple to read and help guide our strategy.”
“I find that Beehiiv is a little trickier to use and is a little more limited, but has less social interaction.”
“Some editing options arent great. And seems like there is a forceful push to get paid plans, which is not a good user experience”
beehiiv is a newsletter platform that started with email and has grown into a place to build an audience-led business. Each publication gets a post editor, a website, subscribe forms, analytics and templates, and you can host a podcast or sell digital products from the same account. It also has an API and connects to tools such as Stripe, Zapier and Shopify.
The company says it was built by people who helped turn a newsletter into a major media company, and it aims the product at writers, creators, publishers and media brands. It fits anyone who treats a newsletter as the product, and it handles several publications from one account. If you mainly want ecommerce email tied to orders and baskets, a shop-focused tool will fit better.
Growth tools include a recommendation network where newsletters suggest each other at sign-up, plus referral programmes, pop-ups and one-click Magic Links on paid plans. Analytics show opens, clicks and subscribers, and paid plans add segmentation and A/B testing.
The paid plans unlock ways to earn: paid subscriptions where beehiiv says it takes no cut, its ad network, paid recommendations, digital products and direct sponsorships. Stripe's processing fee still applies to payments, and what you earn depends on audience size and niche.
There is a free plan for smaller lists, then paid plans that rise with the size of your list. Prices are in US dollars, so what you pay in pounds moves with the exchange rate, and yearly billing costs less than monthly. New accounts can try paid features on a trial, and the pricing page has a slider for your list size.
Any live code is listed on this page: copy it and enter it at checkout. Beyond that, beehiiv's own routes to a lower bill are yearly billing and staying on the free plan for as long as your list allows. Its help centre says sales are final, so cancel before a renewal date rather than after.

Substack is free until readers pay, then keeps 10%; beehiiv, Kit, Ghost and the rest charge a flat fee instead. I work out which costs less at 1,000 and 10,000 subscribers, who brings you readers, who lets you leave with them, and what UK writers need to know about VAT and consent.
