What is Campaign Monitor?

Campaign Monitor is an email marketing platform owned by Marigold that helps businesses design, send, and track email campaigns. It offers a drag and drop email builder, prebuilt templates, audience segmentation, and a visual customer journey designer for building automated email sequences triggered by subscriber behavior such as purchases or signups. The platform also supports transactional emails, SMS marketing, and signup forms for growing an audience, along with real time analytics dashboards for tracking opens, clicks, and engagement.

The product is aimed at small businesses, marketing teams, and agencies, and it connects with e-commerce and CRM tools such as Shopify, WordPress, and Salesforce, plus broader automation through Zapier. Agencies get a client management dashboard with template sharing across sub accounts. Campaign Monitor is cloud based and accessed entirely through a web browser, with plans that scale in price based on contact list size and required send volume.

Campaign Monitor FAQs

Campaign Monitor does not offer a permanent free plan. It provides a free trial (around 30 days) with limited contacts and send volume so you can test the platform before subscribing to a paid tier.

At the 500 contact tier, published pricing shows the Lite plan starting around $13 per month, Essentials around $31 per month, and Premier around $159 per month, based on monthly billing. Paying annually reportedly gives roughly a 10% discount. Prices scale up as your contact list grows, so it is best to confirm current numbers on the official pricing page.

Lite includes core email features but caps monthly sends at roughly five times your contact count. Essentials removes the send cap for unlimited email sends and unlimited automated emails. Premier adds further support priority, advanced engagement segments, send time optimization, and additional administrative tools for larger teams.
