Best email marketing software for Podcasters2026

Last updated

Podcasters live on platforms they don't own, so an email list is the one audience they keep. The right tool turns listeners into subscribers, sends new-episode and show-note emails, and ideally hosts the podcast and a website in one place. We compared platforms on free tiers, newsletter and publishing features, and how price scales as your audience grows.

Podcasters who want email and podcast hosting in one place — the free Launch plan includes both, plus unlimited sends up to 2,500 subscribers.

Full review →
Best for
Podcasters building a creator business who need to sell digital products or paid newsletters alongside their show, supported by visual automations and audience tagging.

Podcasters who are just starting out and want a low-cost entry point — paid plans start at $12/month — with digital product sales and a landing page builder included.
Not ideal for

GetResponse

Full review →
Best for
Podcasters who also run online courses, since the Creator plan at $69/month includes a course creator tool supporting up to 500 students.
