What’s the best way to monetize email subscribers?
Last Updated: 01.07.2025 15:03
The two email platforms I know that help you monetize your newsletters are:
Earn money by recommending other beehiiv newsletters
Substack
beehiiv
Join beehiiv’s affiliate program
You won’t know until you try out multiple options and find out which is the best way for you.
It seems that I am cursed with bad luck. How do I break such a curse?
So, if you’re looking for more ways to monetize your newsletter, beehiiv is the way to go.
Another difference between the two platforms is that Substack doesn’t encourage promoting your personal and affiliate products in emails, but beehiiv does.
Monetize access to your content with subscription tiers
What is the meaning of xx in texting?
Monetize access to your content with subscription tiers
Display ads in emails
Meanwhile, Substack could still be a better option if you like its overall features better….it does have some that aren’t available on beehiiv (especially community-building features like chats, discussion threads, and Notes (aka Twitter clone)).
