Klaviyo Free Plan
Klaviyo's free plan covers 250 active profiles and 500 emails a month, with flows, forms and $5 of texts. Use it to set up your store's flows, and move to the $20 plan once you pass 250 people or send more than two campaigns a month.
Klaviyo Pricing
Most stores should start on Klaviyo's Email plan: $20 a month at 500 profiles, $100 at 5,000 and $150 at 10,000. Above 10,000 profiles the price climbs fast ($350 at 15,000), so compare Omnisend there.
