| Which plan to pick | Try Free first. Most small businesses should go straight to Standard, because it removes Brevo's logo and adds automations. Pick your email volume carefully, since that's what you pay for. Yearly billing saves 10%, and prices vary by country. | Start on Free and stay there while you're only sending a newsletter. Move to Creator once you want a welcome sequence or automations, which is usually the moment a list starts making money. Prices rise with subscriber count, and Kit often runs first-year discounts on Pro. |
