Why stores switch
Why Shopify stores switch from Constant Contact
Constant Contact is built for restaurants, nonprofits and event organisers as much as stores. Emailwish is built for store owners who want their marketing to run on their store's data.
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.
Five tools, one bill.
Popups, product reviews, live chat and wishlists come with every plan, including Free. No extra review or chat subscription, no integrations to keep in sync.
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. Constant Contact has no chat, review or wishlist data of its own, and Lite allows one custom segment.
Pricing
More flows, a smaller bill
Constant Contact Lite costs $80 a month at 5,000 contacts and includes one automation template; Standard is $110 for three. Emailwish costs $55 a month at 5,000 contacts, with done-for-you flows, popups, reviews, live chat and wishlists included.

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

Replace five apps with one plan
Constant Contact 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.
