Shopify Email is the simplest way to start because it is already part of Shopify. You create email, SMS and WhatsApp campaigns from templates, describe changes for Sidekick to apply to your branded emails, and segment customers using the data your store already holds. The feature list on its App Store listing includes abandoned cart, browse abandonment, welcome, follow-up and win-back emails, discounts and upsell emails, plus reports on click-through and conversion rates. Pricing is per send instead of per contact: the first 10,000 emails each month are free and pricing starts at $1 per 1,000 emails after that, billed in USD. That makes it the cheapest option on this list for a store with a large but rarely mailed list. The limits are depth and reach. It only works on Shopify, it has no data integrations beyond the Shopify ecosystem, and brands that want predictive segments or multi-step branching flows usually move to Klaviyo or Omnisend.
