AWeber vs GetResponse
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
AWebersite ↗pricing ↗
A long-established email marketing service for small businesses, covering newsletters, autoresponders and landing pages. Paid plans start at $12.49/mo (Lite); no free plan is published. The ladder we hold runs 3 paid tiers, topping out at $20/mo (Done). We read the same $12.49/mo in every market we check, so this vendor does not price by country. It quotes USD here rather than local currency, so your bank sets the conversion.
GetResponsesite ↗pricing ↗
An email marketing platform with webinars, funnels and landing pages built in, which makes it a marketing suite rather than a pure newsletter tool. Paid plans start at €16/mo (Starter); no free plan is published. The ladder we hold runs 3 paid tiers, topping out at €62/mo (Creator). GetResponse prices by list size and charges in your local currency, which makes it look dearer or cheaper than it is depending on where you read about it.

- Free plans: neither publishes one. Any free access here is a trial, which is a deadline.
- How far each ladder goes: AWeber tops out at $20/mo, GetResponse at €62/mo. A deeper ladder is not a worse deal — it is a bill that keeps climbing if you keep growing.
- AWeber: We read the same $12.49/mo in every market we check, so this vendor does not price by country. It quotes USD here rather than local currency, so your bank sets the conversion.
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.
