Why teams switch from Mailchimp

Indian businesses switching from Mailchimp typically save ₹5,000-₹60,000 per month depending on volume while getting the same delivery performance. The biggest reasons: Mailchimp charges in USD, punishes you for storing contacts, and blocks you from growing affordably.

Same AWS SES infrastructure
Zero middleman markup
No monthly subscriptions

THE VERDICT

Mailchimp is a great product, but for high-volume bulk email in India, you're paying a massive premium for brand name and features you likely don't need. Crucially, Mailchimp charges you for stored contacts, meaning you pay even when you are not sending emails. LoomiMail gives you the same AWS SES delivery engine at 85% less cost, with zero contact storage limits and no monthly commitments - making it the clear choice for Indian businesses and startups.
