Campaigner publishes its whole price curve on a slider, which makes two things visible that most email platforms leave buried. The first is ordinary: cost per contact falls steeply with scale, from $14.00 per 1,000 contacts at a 1,000-contact list to $4.09 at 100,000. The second is not: the premium for the Advanced tier — the only one with automation — is widest at the smallest list. At 1,000 contacts Advanced costs 2.5× Essentials; at 40,000 it costs 1.46×. Automation is proportionally most expensive for the senders least able to afford it.
- What it is: An email marketing platform with automation, segmentation and SMS.
- Best for: Mid-size senders who need multi-path automation.
- Pricing: From $14/month at 1,000 contacts; scales with list size. Verified August 2026.
- The honest catch: Automation requires Advanced, and it is priciest on small lists.
What Is Campaigner?
Campaigner is an established email marketing platform covering campaigns, automation, segmentation and reporting, with a separate transactional SMS/MMS product alongside the marketing one.
It sells three tiers. Essentials covers the fundamentals — drag-and-drop editor, HTML editor, email templates, detailed campaign reporting, A/B experiments, dynamic content, merge fields, content blocks, conditional content and RSS feeds. Advanced adds the things that make a platform rather than a sender: automation workflows, both simple and multi-path, advanced segmentation and advanced personalization. Custom is quote-only, adding a dedicated account manager and deliverability consulting for high-volume senders.
Two details worth noting up front. Campaigner offers a genuine currency selector — USD, CAD and GBP — rather than guessing from your IP, which several vendors in this review series do not. And both published tiers offer “Start for Free”.
How Campaigner Works
- Priced by contact count, adjustable on a slider.
- Three tiers — Essentials, Advanced, and quote-only Custom.
- Automation is Advanced-only.
- Currency selector for USD, CAD and GBP.
- Free start on both published tiers.
- Separate SMS/MMS transactional product.
Campaigner Pricing
Read directly from Campaigner’s own contact slider, in USD per month.
| Contacts | Essentials | Advanced | Advanced premium | Essentials per 1,000 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1,000 | $14 | $35 | 2.50× | $14.00 |
| 2,500 | $24 | $47 | 1.96× | $9.60 |
| 10,000 | $72 | $124 | 1.72× | $7.20 |
| 15,000 | $109 | $192 | 1.76× | $7.27 |
| 25,000 | $158 | $258 | 1.63× | $6.32 |
| 40,000 | $238 | $347 | 1.46× | $5.95 |
| 70,000 | $349 | $499 | 1.43× | $4.99 |
| 100,000 | $409 | $649 | 1.59× | $4.09 |
What actually decides your cost:
- Automation is Advanced-only, and it costs most — proportionally — on the smallest list. Essentials has no automation workflows at all. To get them you move to Advanced, which at 1,000 contacts means $35 against $14 — 2.5 times the price. At 40,000 contacts the same upgrade is 1.46×, and at 70,000 it is 1.43×. A small business wanting a welcome sequence pays the steepest relative premium in the entire price list. If automation is why you are shopping, price Advanced from the start rather than budgeting from the $14 headline.
- Cost per contact falls by 3.4× across the range. $14.00 per 1,000 contacts at a 1,000-contact list, $7.20 at 10,000, $4.09 at 100,000. This is normal for email platforms, but it is worth seeing plainly: the smallest senders pay the most per subscriber, and growth is rewarded steeply. Between 1,000 and 10,000 contacts — a tenfold increase in list — the bill rises only about fivefold.
- The curve is not perfectly smooth, so check your own number. The Advanced premium falls from 2.50× to 1.43× as lists grow, then ticks back up to 1.59× at 100,000. Essentials’ per-1,000 cost likewise dips at 10,000 ($7.20) before rising slightly at 15,000 ($7.27). Because pricing moves in bands rather than a clean formula, the sensible move is to set the slider to your actual list size and read both tiers rather than interpolating from the numbers here.
- List size, not send volume, is the meter. Pricing is set by contacts stored, so a large list emailed rarely costs the same as a large list emailed daily. Pruning inactive subscribers is therefore a direct cost saving as well as a deliverability one — at 100,000 contacts, cutting 20,000 dead addresses saves real money every month.
- Essentials is a capable sender, just not a marketer. It includes the drag-and-drop and HTML editors, templates, A/B experiments, multivariate testing, dynamic content, conditional content, merge fields and RSS feeds. That is more than a bare tier usually offers — the gap to Advanced is specifically automation, advanced segmentation and advanced personalization, not basic capability.
- Custom is where deliverability support lives. A dedicated account manager and deliverability consulting are Custom-only, alongside the full feature suite. For senders at a scale where inbox placement is a revenue issue rather than an annoyance, that is the tier — and it is quote-only, so expect a sales conversation.
- The currency selector is a small but real courtesy. USD, CAD and GBP are selectable rather than assigned. Elsewhere in this review series we found vendors geo-pricing with no override, and one charging the same numeral in euros as in dollars — about 15% more for European buyers. Campaigner lets you choose.
-
The affiliate link lands on a campaign page, not pricing.
/go/campaigner-emailreturns 200 and resolves through PartnerStack totry.campaigner.com/powerful-email-marketing/with the partner key intact. Attribution works correctly; the destination is a marketing landing page rather than somewhere you can compare tiers, so you will need to navigate to pricing yourself.
Who Should Use Campaigner
- Mid-size senders needing automation. The Advanced premium is most reasonable from about 25,000 contacts.
- Businesses wanting multi-path workflows. Simple and multi-path automation both sit on Advanced.
- Senders who also need SMS. A separate transactional product covers SMS and MMS.
- UK and Canadian buyers. Native GBP and CAD pricing rather than a conversion.
It fits poorly for very small lists that need automation, where the 2.5× premium bites hardest; for senders who mail infrequently, since pricing follows list size rather than volume; and for anyone wanting a permanently free tier, which this is not.
Honest Pros and Cons
Strengths
- The full price curve is public via the contact slider.
- A genuine currency selector — USD, CAD, GBP.
- Essentials includes A/B and multivariate testing, often withheld elsewhere.
- Conditional and dynamic content on the entry tier.
- Cost per contact falls to $4.09 per 1,000 at scale.
- Free start on both published tiers.
Limitations
- No automation whatsoever on Essentials.
- Advanced costs 2.5× Essentials at 1,000 contacts.
- Priced on list size, not sends.
- Deliverability consulting is Custom-only.
- Custom pricing is quote-only.
- The affiliate link skips the pricing page.
Campaigner Alternatives and How It Compares
- Mailchimp is the default for small senders and includes basic automation lower down.
- ActiveCampaign is the automation specialist, generally at a higher price.
- Campaign Monitor competes closely on design and templates.
- beehiiv targets newsletters and creators rather than general marketing.
The Verdict
Campaigner does something genuinely useful with its pricing page: it puts the entire cost curve behind a slider, so you can read the real price at your own list size instead of extrapolating from a headline. More platforms should.
What that transparency exposes is a structural point worth understanding before you buy. Automation lives only on Advanced, and the cost of moving there is not constant — it is 2.5× Essentials at 1,000 contacts, 1.72× at 10,000, and 1.46× at 40,000. In other words, the smaller your list, the more disproportionately you pay for the feature that most distinguishes a marketing platform from a mailing tool. A 1,000-contact business wanting a welcome sequence faces the worst ratio on the page; a 40,000-contact business faces the best. If automation is the reason you are here — and for most people evaluating an email platform, it is — budget from Advanced, not from the $14 that leads the page.
The other curve runs the usual way and is worth knowing in absolute terms: $14.00 per 1,000 contacts at the bottom against $4.09 at 100,000, a 3.4× difference. Since the meter is list size rather than sends, that also makes list hygiene a direct financial lever — culling unengaged subscribers cuts the bill immediately, which is a rare case of the commercially sensible thing and the deliverability-sensible thing being identical.
Credit where it is due elsewhere. Essentials is not a hobbled tier — it carries A/B and multivariate testing, dynamic and conditional content, merge fields and RSS, which several competitors reserve for higher plans. The gap to Advanced is specifically automation and segmentation, honestly drawn. And Campaigner offers a real currency selector across USD, CAD and GBP rather than deciding for you by IP address.
Set the slider to your actual number, read both tiers, and decide on the Advanced figure. That is the price of the product you are actually buying.
FAQ
How much does Campaigner cost?
It depends on list size, and Campaigner publishes the whole curve. At 1,000 contacts, Essentials is $14/month and Advanced $35. At 10,000 it is $72 and $124; at 40,000, $238 and $347; at 100,000, $409 and $649. A quote-only Custom tier sits above both. Prices can be shown in USD, CAD or GBP, and both published tiers offer a free start.
Does Campaigner’s cheapest plan include automation?
No. Essentials has no automation workflows at all — those begin on Advanced, along with advanced segmentation and advanced personalization. Essentials is well equipped otherwise, including A/B and multivariate testing, dynamic content, conditional content, merge fields and RSS feeds. If you need a welcome series, abandoned-cart flow or any triggered sequence, Advanced is your actual starting price.
Why is Campaigner’s Advanced tier relatively more expensive for small lists?
Because the two tiers converge as lists grow. At 1,000 contacts Advanced costs 2.5× Essentials ($35 against $14). By 40,000 contacts the same upgrade is 1.46× ($347 against $238), and at 70,000 it is 1.43×. The absolute gap widens but the ratio narrows, so a small sender pays the steepest relative premium for automation. Anyone under about 10,000 contacts should weigh that ratio carefully against competitors that include basic automation at entry level.
Is Campaigner priced on contacts or emails sent?
Contacts. The slider on its pricing page sets the number of contacts, and the price follows from that regardless of how often you mail them. That means a large, rarely-mailed list costs the same as a large, heavily-mailed one — so removing inactive subscribers reduces your bill directly, in addition to improving deliverability.
What does Campaigner’s Custom plan add?
The full feature suite, plus dedicated account management and deliverability consulting. It is aimed at senders operating at a scale where inbox placement materially affects revenue. Pricing is not published — Custom is a “talk to sales” tier — so expect a quote rather than a rate card.

They are good at e-mail marketing and have great threshold regarding the outreach of e-mail respondents and users in their database. They have a lot of industry experience and have genuine connection to deliver the prerequisite goals and demands of this volatile market. They are also delivery and quality oriented with their adhesive and thorough data backup which captivates the organization, this helps us a company to draw out analytic and augmentative approach toward the newly promoted business trends.
They haven't expanded much over the last decade, they show lot of promise but are not that subtle with their policies. This majorly can be due to their internal channels and organizational policies which are quite disruptive and linear. They are not assumed to be adventurous or risk takers in their area of work and hence they have acquired such stagnant growth over the year. It is not that but can be improved in the near future.

The program automation feature is still a little confusing and not very intuitive. It also looks clunky.

The ability to broadcast information over emails and sms has helped our business. Campaigner works as a broadcaster for information and running sales campaigns for us. The reporting gives an overview of the overall success of the campaign, where numbers of open and number of reverts work as a metric.
The emails sometimes end up in spam folders. A thorough research and proof check has to be done manually before running a campaign.

REMEMBRING OUR CUSTOMERS TRANSACTIONS
The reporting feature from Campaigner had a lot of really great data. It was robust and easy to navigate. I also found their account team to be incredibly helpful, friendly and easy to work with. The platform was always being improved and it was clear they were on the right path to making it better and better.
The platform really needed a drag and drop editor for users in my organization who didn't have any experience with email. Even the smartbuilder was too difficult for some of them to use.
We had switched from Constant Contact to Campaigner because we needed to do more advanced emailing. Campaigner was game changing in giving us the ability to do more targeted emails and segmentation. It helped our engagement rate increase and our unsubscribe rate to decrease.
I like the simplicity of it. It is not difficult to use unlike other email building platforms such as Salesforce's Pardot, which is very cumbersome.
I wish that the email builder allowed you to do more. It does not allow me to achieve what I want artistically so I have to design it myself and just upload a jpeg, which is not SEO friendly.
We are able to reach out to potential buyers and clients that we would otherwise not be able to reach.
The deals and the flexibility of the service.
The staff that answeres seem like they are in a rush.

I like this software because it makes it easy to produce email campaigns to multiple people at once
The process of producing the email is very time consuming
This software is good to produce the number of emails a company would like to send at once
I’ve used this for a while now, and it’s a pretty decent program for getting your business out there via email.
Could be a little more user friendly for someone who only works are one person for a business
Increased my bookings
I like the new version that is easy to use.
The lag time. The website takes a while to load, in my opinion.
We send out 97 million emails from campaigner everyday.
We've recently transitioned to campaigner and they did an awesome job at working with our team to get us integrated and quick to respond to our questions.
You have to contact them to make updates to our footer if we use a smart footer feature.
We presently use Whatcounts and we've had a number of issues with that ESP. Campaigner has helped us get an API and the ability to set up smart templates via the API that we couldn't with Whatcounts.
I like that you can choose a plan that works for you. You don’t have to pay for 3 million contacts if you only have 50,000. I also like that it’s easy for someone without graphic design experience to create an email blast campaign. It’s easy to schedule the mailings and pull the analytics.
I wish there were more in depth analytics about who opens and clicks on each email campaign.
Campaigner email helps us reach a larger audience and help our clients spread their message. We can also target specific regions and sectors of our industry.
Efficient and makes work easier. Ease of use
Layout is a little complicated could be better
Communication
We have been using campaigner for many years now and while its not as powerful as its pears like mailchimp it shines in its simplicity and ease of use.
Campaigner doesn't differentiate fake email addreses from real ones, checking our subscriber count I see far too many bogus emails.
We are using campaigner for email subscribers from our customers..
We are just switching from Streamsend to Campaigner and having a great time with our account rep. The platform has a lot of tricks up its sleeves when it comes to testing and variable sends.
The lack of a drag and drop edititor is a major downfall, but they are working to create one.
Campaigner provides a heatmap for analyzing campaigns which is very helpful in testing different placements and customer link tracking. This is something we have wanted in the past.
Just switched. Like the flexibility of the templates.
Sometimes the test email Doesn’t come to me for several Minutes.
