Emailwish vs AWeber

Emailwish vs AWeber: email built for your store, set up for you.

Emailwish syncs your store directly, writes your emails in your brand's voice, switches on about 10 flows at setup, and adds popups, reviews, live chat and wishlists in the same app. At 5,000 contacts it costs less than AWeber Lite alone.

Why stores switch

Why Shopify stores switch from AWeber

AWeber is built for creators, newsletters and landing pages. Emailwish is built for store owners who want their email marketing to run on their store's data.

Setup

Live on day one.

Emailwish pulls your store name, logo, products and brand details from Shopify, writes the emails in your voice and switches on about 10 flows: welcome, abandoned cart, review request, form signup, chat follow-up and more.

Emailwish flow builder with a welcome series: signup trigger, two emails, a 3-day wait and a branch on whether the first email was opened
One app

Five tools, one bill.

Popups, product reviews, live chat and wishlists come with every plan, including Free. No connector app, no extra review or chat subscription, no syncs to keep working.

Smarter targeting

Target what really happened.

Mix wishlists, chats, reviews and popup signups with order history in one segment: a VIP who left a negative review recently, or a shopper who saved a jacket and asked about sizing in chat. AWeber has no chat, review or wishlist data of its own, so it only sees what connected apps send it.

Chat, product view and popup signals flowing into one customer profile that triggers a personalised email

Pricing

Every flow you need, no automation cap

AWeber Lite costs $60 a month at 5,000 subscribers and runs three automations; Plus removes the cap at $90. Emailwish costs $55 a month at 5,000 contacts, with done-for-you flows, popups, reviews, live chat and wishlists included.

  • Seed: free for 1,000 emails and 100 contacts
  • Launch: $35 a month for 10,000 emails and 5,000 contacts
  • Growth: $100 a month for 50,000 emails and 50,000 contacts

Built in

Reviews and chat that sell for you

Review requests go out after delivery, approved reviews show on product pages and inside popups, and the after-review series thanks happy customers. Chats land in one inbox with the shopper's orders beside them.

  • Photo and video reviews, Q&A and Google star ratings
  • Chat follow-up emails when a shopper doesn't buy
  • Back-in-stock and price-drop alerts for wishlisted items
Review request flow that branches by star rating into a thank-you or a personal recovery email

Pricing

Replace five apps with one plan

AWeber covers email. To match Emailwish, a Shopify store adds a review app, a popup app, a chat app and a wishlist app. Here's what that stack costs a growing store.

  4. 04

    Switch AWeber off
