What’s the best way to monetize email subscribers?
Last Updated: 02.07.2025 14:34
The two email platforms I know that help you monetize your newsletters are:
Display ads in emails
Monetize access to your content with subscription tiers
China Auto Body Slams ‘Vicious Competition’ After BYD Price Cuts - Bloomberg
Earn money by recommending other beehiiv newsletters
Another difference between the two platforms is that Substack doesn’t encourage promoting your personal and affiliate products in emails, but beehiiv does.
Join beehiiv’s affiliate program

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)).
