Best Mailchimp alternatives (2026)

2 curated alternatives, reviewed by humans, refreshed weekly.

Reviewed by SaaSpark editorialLast verified Jun 11, 2026

Mailchimp's roots are in newsletter sending for small businesses. If you're running a SaaS, you'll outgrow it the moment you need product-event triggered automations.

**Loops** is the modern marketing-email default for SaaS. If your sending is actually transactional (welcome emails, password resets), look at **Resend** instead — different category, but often what people ask for when they say they're "looking for Mailchimp alternatives".

Why we picked it: Built specifically for SaaS — automations, segments, broadcasts.
