What’s the best way to monetize email subscribers?

Last Updated: 02.07.2025 05:54

Another difference between the two platforms is that Substack doesn’t encourage promoting your personal and affiliate products in emails, but beehiiv does.

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)).

So, if you’re looking for more ways to monetize your newsletter, beehiiv is the way to go.
