What it does
Growing a mailing list usually means stitching together a form tool, an email service and a separate newsletter editor. This plugin keeps that work inside WordPress. You place customizable subscription forms anywhere on your site, and new subscribers can be sorted automatically into targeted lists with a custom welcome email. It also connects with form plugins like Contact Form 7, Elementor, Gravity Forms, Ninja Forms and WP Forms, so forms you already use can feed your list.
Once people sign up, you build newsletters with a drag and drop composer that offers over 25 content blocks, including images, gifs, blog posts, WooCommerce products, YouTube videos and HTML snippets, with previews across devices. You can schedule daily, weekly or monthly sends, set up autoresponder series and review opens and clicks. Sending can run through external services such as Amazon SES, SendGrid, Mailgun and SMTP.com, and bounce handling helps keep the list clean.
Best for
- Bloggers turning regular readers into email subscribers
- WooCommerce stores sending product newsletters to customers
- Membership sites syncing members with mailing lists

Questions about Newsletter Leads
Can I use my existing contact forms to collect subscribers?
Yes. The plugin connects with Contact Form 7, Elementor, Gravity Forms, Ninja Forms and WP Forms, so forms built with those tools can capture leads and add them to your mailing lists. You can also place its own customizable subscription forms anywhere on your site.
Does it work with membership plugins?
It supports WP User, MemberPress, Paid Membership Pro and other membership plugins, letting you keep your site users and newsletter subscribers in sync. It can also include locked content in newsletters for exclusive subscriber engagement.
Can I send emails through a service like Amazon SES or SendGrid?
