Constant Contact vs Sender
Both ladders below were read from the vendors’ own pricing pages, in this market, on the dates shown. Nothing is converted: what you see is what each page showed a reader here.
What each one is
Constant Contactsite ↗pricing ↗
One of the oldest email marketing services, aimed at small businesses and non-profits, with event invitations and social posting alongside email. Paid plans start at $12/mo (Lite); no free plan is published. The ladder we hold runs 3 paid tiers, topping out at $80/mo (Premium). It bills by country — entry €12/mo in the eurozone, from our same-day reads. Constant Contact publishes every plan as a 'starting at' figure that climbs with your contact count, which is why the bill and the advertised price drift apart over time.
Sendersite ↗pricing ↗
A low-cost email and SMS marketing tool for small businesses and online shops. Paid plans start at $7/mo (Standard); a free plan exists. The ladder we hold runs 2 paid tiers, topping out at $14/mo (Professional). We read the same $7/mo in every market we check, so this vendor does not price by country.

- Free plans: only Sender publishes one — a plan priced at zero, not a trial.
- How far each ladder goes: Constant Contact tops out at $80/mo, Sender at $14/mo. A deeper ladder is not a worse deal — it is a bill that keeps climbing if you keep growing.
- Constant Contact: It bills by country — entry €12/mo in the eurozone, from our same-day reads.
- Sender: We read the same $7/mo in every market we check, so this vendor does not price by country.
How to choose in this category
- Most tools price by list size — a quoted price is only true at a stated subscriber count, so re-check the ladder at yours.
- Free tiers differ in what they cap: subscribers, sends or features. Two ‘free plans’ are rarely the same thing.
- Headline prices are often the annual-billing rate; the pay-monthly figure sits higher.
