The short version

  • Only Constant Contact has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Checkout.com checkout.com/pricing publishes no per-transaction percentage or fixed fee; pricing is set per business profile and risk category through direct sales contact, per the vendor's own pricing page (Aug 2026); Constant Contact core plan started at $9.99 per month and Plus plan at $45 per month, both scaling by contact list size rather than a flat rate (Internet Archive capture, 2022)
