EU Newsletter Platforms — 4-Way Comparison

Four credible European newsletter and email marketing platforms — from the all-in-one French SMB suite (Brevo) through the developer-focused transactional specialist (Mailjet), the sustainable Swiss option (Infomaniak Newsletter), to the Polish marketing veteran with built-in webinars (GetResponse).

Newsletter2Go isn't a separate option anymore — it was acquired by Brevo in 2021 and merged into the Brevo product. If you remember Newsletter2Go, you're remembering current-Brevo. Mailerlite migrated its HQ to the US, so we don't include it as a pure-EU option.
