I have to leave 40 characters. I really have nothing to say. The interface is fine I guess. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Shopify checkout includes a checkbox where customers can choose whether to receive marketing emails. In my experience with Kit’s Shopify integration, leaving that box unchecked caused Kit to apply a “Shopify: no marketing” tag, even when the customer was already subscribed to our newsletter.

That meant an existing subscriber needs to check the marketing box again every time they ordered to avoid receiving that tag. Leaving a checkout checkbox unchecked isn’t the same as intentionally unsubscribing from a newsletter they previously joined.

The tag also required manual maintenance when customers’ preferences changed. Customers who opted in could remain excluded because the tag was still present, while customers who declined marketing could receive newsletters if the tag wasn’t used to exclude them from the audience. This is a huge issue.

This meant manually checking and updating customer records to keep newsletters going to the correct people. This was far more consequential than an inconvenient tagging workflow: it affected whether customers received emails they wanted or marketing they didn’t want.

I reported the issue to Kit on July 18, 2026, before my annual subscription renewed on August 4. I believed this behavior was a bug and stayed hoping it would be corrected. After trying to manage the workaround, I realized the ongoing manual maintenance was unsustainable and moved to another platform.

Kit declined my request for a prorated refund of the remaining unused subscription time, citing its 30-day refund policy. Its billing team acknowledged that I reported the issue before renewal and tried to make the workaround work, but declined an exception. I'm not asking for a refund of time used--just a refund for UNUSED time. This is dirty.

If you use a Shopify store I highly recommend looking elsewhere for a platform that actually integrates with Shopify. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like Kit’s simple, user-friendly interface. It makes it easy to manage email campaigns, grow subscriber lists, and stay in touch with my audience, without the whole process feeling complicated or overwhelming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Kit can feel a bit limited when it comes to advanced customization and automation. Some features also take time to learn, especially for users who are new to email marketing. I think more flexible design options, along with a simpler workflow for the more advanced tools, would make the overall experience smoother and more intuitive.

It makes it easy to create a newsletter workflow. The interface is clean, the email builder is easy to use, and the automations help turn subscribers into a real relationship and sales instead of just a pretty name of a list. It saves me time, helps me keep organized and the ROI has been great. It has many integrations as well that help me connect with my other apps. The AI tools are also a plus. Overall it's a good tool.

It can be pricy once your list start growing and some features take a learning curve to understand, especially automation and segmentation. The interface is clean but setting up the right subscriber journey can be overwhelming at first. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the things we like most about Kit is how it balances simplicity with powerful email marketing automation. As a small SaaS business at AppSumore, we use it to manage newsletters, product announcements, and automated email sequences without needing a complicated setup.

The visual automation builder is intuitive and makes it easy to create subscriber journeys based on user actions, tags, and custom segments. We also appreciate the clean interface, which keeps campaign management organized even as our email list grows. Compared to some other email marketing platforms we've tested, Kit has a much shorter learning curve.

Another standout feature is its integrations. Connecting Kit with landing pages, forms, and other marketing tools is straightforward, allowing us to automate lead capture and follow-up with minimal manual work. Deliverability has also been reliable, and campaign performance reports provide enough insights to optimize open rates and engagement.

Kit also includes AI-powered writing assistance for generating email drafts and subject line ideas. While we still edit the final copy to match our brand voice, the AI features help reduce the time spent creating campaign content.

From a pricing perspective, Kit delivers solid value for businesses focused on email marketing and creator audiences. The automation features and reliable deliverability help reduce manual work, making it easier to justify the subscription cost as our email campaigns scale. We've seen a positive return on investment through improved campaign efficiency and consistent audience engagement.

The onboarding experience was straightforward, with clear documentation, templates, and in-app guidance that made it easy to get started. On the few occasions we needed assistance, the support resources were helpful and allowed us to resolve questions without significant delays. Overall, the platform is approachable for new users while still offering enough depth for more advanced marketing workflows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our biggest area for improvement would be reporting and analytics. While Kit provides the core email metrics, we'd like more advanced attribution, conversion tracking, and customizable reports to better understand how campaigns influence the customer journey across multiple channels.

As our subscriber base grows, pricing can increase fairly quickly. It would be helpful if more automation, segmentation, and reporting features were included in the lower-tier plans, giving small businesses more room to scale before upgrading.

We'd also appreciate additional native integrations with a wider range of SaaS and marketing platforms. Although third-party connectors are available, direct integrations are generally easier to maintain and reduce setup time.

Finally, the AI writing assistant is a useful starting point, but it could offer more control over tone, brand voice, and content style. More personalization options and smarter suggestions based on previous campaigns would make the feature even more valuable for teams that produce email content regularly.

I really like the tags and segmentation feature On top of that the unlimited email sending offer is amazing so anyone is starting just starting off in their business should definitely use it for marketing because it's cost effective add small scale for small scale businesses Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The sequence The sequence is not good I will features are not enough They should be multi entry point feature there should be multi web hooks and execution feature etc But there isn't any Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I best like about Kit is how simple and creator focused it is, compared to other enterprise heavy marketing tools. Setting up email automations, filtering or segmenting audience, workflows is all relatively straightforward in use. I also found the analytics and engagement insights useful for tracking and understanding user behaviour, helping me in improving the communication in workflows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So one limitation i noticed is some useful features, especially, the advanced A/B testing capabilities, are restricted only for the Pro plan of it, which is way costly that's 66$ per month. The creator plan that is 33$ per month should have this included, otherwise this plan feels slightly limited for the advanced customisation and testing flexibility.

I find Kit really helpful for smaller businesses, creatives, and consultants. As a platform for email marketing and communications, it is really interesting and very easy to use. The automation is straightforward, making it easy for me to build automated funnels. I appreciate the built-in landing pages and forms, which are really nice to use and very self-explanatory even for those not trained on the system. Additionally, it's easy to tag people and update contacts, and the designs provided are easily usable. It’s also simple to train others on Kit, which is crucial since I work with small founding teams. The initial setup was very straightforward with easy payment options.

It just doesn't compete with the bigger platforms. For example, if you're looking at platforms like Klaviyo, HubSpot, It's a much smaller platform, and that's fine. That's not even a criticism. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find that Kit's uptime is decent. Although we've had deliverability issues over the years, there are other services that are more unreliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like the extractive business practices Kit uses, like automatically ratcheting up account upgrades. They don't make downgrades as easy and it's incredibly hard to find that option. The initial setup wasn't easy either. They claim to offer migration help, but I've heard from friends that their accounts were messed up when they took up that offer. It also seems like their incentive structure might be messed up since they continue to lose customers, and I feel like I'll soon be a lost customer too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's fast, intuitive, lots of great features. Their creator focus means the things they launch are really in line with what I need like their referral system for growth, their "borrow our mailing address" so I don't have to put a personal address as a remote worker, etc. They even have free podcast studios for users!

I'm an affiliate because I think it's a really great platform for creators. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The default formatting is hard to read. Need a code snippet to fix it and it's still not perfect. Getting it perfect has been a task on my to do list. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Kit has been a great tool for me. When I originally joined, I found their free version to be robust enough for my needs, but have since upgraded. I use Squarespace for my website, and it's easy to embed their forms on my websites and it's easy to set up segments of people on my email list. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't have strong complaints about Kit. If you scale even slightly you'll need to pay, so they really get you with the pain points behind paywalls, but that's just business for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
