What it does
Campaign Monitor provides email templates, a visual journey designer and campaign reporting. Its agency tools add client accounts, permissions, shared automation and options for controlling editable content in templates.
Templates for agencies and client teams
Campaign Monitor's agency tools let a team assign content-editing permissions in email templates. That suits a franchise newsletter where local staff should update the event details while preserving the agreed layout. Client permissions, shared automations and a consolidated activity view support the work across accounts.
The ordinary campaign workflow also includes templates for announcements, offers and newsletters, plus a visual designer for customer journeys. Shared templates keep the layout consistent across a client's announcements and automated welcome emails.
For agencies maintaining integrations, subaccounts can receive their own API keys. Reporting can then remain connected to the correct client context. Sending and subscriber allowances still apply: the pricing FAQ describes an upgrade or additional-email charge when limits are exceeded, and the annual discount excludes agency and multi-team plans.
Trial and sending plans
The pricing comparison's Free column is a 30-day trial with 500 contacts and a 500-email limit. It is not described as an ongoing free sending allowance. Create an account through Try it free, then choose Lite, Essentials or Premier for continued sending. Enterprise adds a custom contract and multi-brand account management.
