Why creators switch from Kit
Pay once, not per subscriber
One payment covers your first 5,000 contacts. Past that, Pro tiers start at $19/mo — and at every list size, the SendFox tier is a fraction of Kit's price.
Keep what you earn
Kit takes 3.5% + 30¢ of every digital product and paid newsletter sale, plus a 23.5% cut of paid recommendations. SendFox paid newsletters run on your own Stripe account — no platform fee, you keep everything after Stripe's cut.
Features aren't upsells
Kit saves deliverability reporting, subscriber scoring, and its newsletter referral system for the pricier Pro plan. SendFox Pro tiers differ only in contacts and sends — every feature ships on every tier.
Built for creators
Smart Pages, Smart Campaigns from your RSS, and a referral program your readers run for you.
SendFox vs Kit: quick answers
Is SendFox a good alternative to Kit?
Yes — if you send newsletters, SendFox is a simpler, far cheaper alternative to Kit (formerly ConvertKit). It is free up to 1,000 contacts, then $29 paid once covers 5,000 contacts and 300,000 email sends forever. Kit bills per subscriber every month, and its price climbs to the next tier as your list grows.
How much does Kit cost compared to SendFox?
At 5,000 subscribers, Kit Creator costs $89 a month — $1,068 a year (kit.com/pricing, monthly billing, September 2026). SendFox Lifetime covers the same 5,000 contacts for $29, paid once. Above 5,000 contacts, SendFox Pro plans start at $19 a month.
Isn't Kit free up to 10,000 subscribers?
It is — but Kit's free plan does not include visual automations, email sequences, or third-party integrations, keeps Kit branding on your emails, and support is email-only. Your first automation needs Creator, which starts at $39 a month. SendFox Free includes an automation and integrations, with 1,000 contacts and 3,000 sends a month.
Can I import my Kit contacts into SendFox?
Yes. Connect your Kit account and import all your subscribers — or just one Kit tag — or upload a CSV export. The import takes about two minutes.
