Which one is for you

Pick Loops if

  • Fits if you run a SaaS product and want product emails and newsletters in one place
  • Works for small user lists, where the free plan covers 1,000 contacts

Look elsewhere if

  • Tight if you stay free: 4,000 sends per rolling 30 days, to the first 1,000 contacts only
  • Watch out: free emails carry a Loops footer
  • Pricey if your list grows: $49 a month at 5,000, rising from there
  • Skip it if you want priority support or migration help, which are Enterprise features
  • Skip it if you want a desktop or mobile app, as only a web app and API are listed

Pick Sequenzy if

  • Fits if you run a SaaS product and want segments built from your billing data
  • Works for big lists mailed rarely, since price follows sends

Look elsewhere if

  • Tight if you stay free: 2,500 emails a month and a Sequenzy footer
  • Pricey if you mail often: price follows emails sent, so the same list costs more every month
  • Watch out: SMS and MMS is a beta add-on at $16 a month, paid plans only, US and Canada numbers
  • Watch out: dedicated IPs are $30 each a month and done-for-you setup is $499 a month
  • Watch out: accounts made before 30 June 2026 keep an earlier price ladder

Worth knowing

Loops

  • Free-plan emails carry a Loops footer, and sending stops at 4,000 per rolling 30 days to the first 1,000 contacts.
  • The Growth price rises with subscribed contacts, from $49 a month at up to 5,000; the page's slider steps are not shown as text.
  • The pages read describe a web app and API only; no desktop or mobile apps are listed.
  • Priority support and migration help are listed under Enterprise, not Growth.

Sequenzy

  • Price follows emails sent, so a list mailed often costs more than one with the same size mailed rarely.
  • SMS and MMS is a beta add-on at $16 a month with 1,000 credits, available only on paid plans, for US and Canada numbers.
  • Dedicated IPs cost $30 per IP a month, and a done-for-you setup service is sold separately at $499 a month.
  • Accounts made before June 30, 2026 keep an earlier price ladder, so the public prices may not match older accounts.

More comparisons

How this page was made

  • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
  • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
  • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
  • The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
