All three plans at 25,000 subscribers

Monthly billing first. Kit prints the yearly price as 10 times the monthly one, sold as two months free, and the annual column is that yearly price divided by 12.

Prices are compiled from public vendor pages and can lag behind a change. Cells marked Der are calculated from published rules and cells marked Est are rough figures. Neither is an invoice or a quote, so confirm with the vendor before you spend.

ConvertKit rename and the free ceiling

ConvertKit rebranded to Kit. SideBySend records one Kit dataset. The ConvertKit URL stays as an alias so the old name still lands on the same numbers rather than a second invented ladder. ConvertKit pricing and Kit pricing both point at that dataset.

Newsletter covers lists up to 10,000 subscribers for free. At 25,000 that free plan is behind you, so the bill is Creator or Creator Pro. Both paid plans include unlimited sends, so send volume never moves the bill once you leave free.

What the subscriber count includes

Kit bills confirmed subscribers only, and its help pages list every other status as outside the billing total: unsubscribed, complained, bounced, blocked and unconfirmed. Hard bounces are unsubscribed automatically. Cold subscribers who still hold a confirmed status keep counting until they are removed by hand. What each tracked vendor counts is recorded here.

Where this stop sits on the ladder

Creator moves from $139 at 10,000 subscribers to $199 here, then to $379 at 50,000. Creator Pro moves from $189 to $279, then to $519. Kit has no 50,000 stop, so a list of that size pays its 55,000 stop. The 10,000 and 25,000 stops are both read off the Kit pricing slider.

The full Newsletter, Creator and Creator Pro ladder lives on the parent page. Kit pricing by subscribers. The 10,000 contact sibling is Kit cost at 10,000 contacts.
