Creator funnels or ecommerce customer journeys
Kit and Drip both support automation, but they are built for different audiences. Kit is for creators using tags, broadcasts, forms, landing pages, and digital-product funnels. Drip is for ecommerce teams using product views, purchases, cart behavior, and customer value to drive lifecycle emails.
Choose Kit when the list belongs to a creator business. Choose Drip when the list belongs to a store.

Decision checklist
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Is the audience buying content or products? | Kit is creator-first; Drip is ecommerce-first. |
| Do purchases and cart behavior drive campaigns? | Drip needs product and order data to justify its premium. |
| Do creator tags and funnels matter more? | Kit is simpler for audience-led businesses. |
| Which commerce data must migrate? | Creator products and ecommerce order history do not map cleanly. |
| Is Sequenzy enough? | SaaS teams need billing and product lifecycle email rather than creator or ecommerce workflows. |
Migration checklist
| Step | What to confirm |
|---|---|
| Export subscribers and consent | Preserve email addresses, tags, custom fields, segments, opt-in source, unsubscribes, bounces, and purchase-related fields. |
| Map commerce data | Decide how creator products, courses, paid subscriptions, Shopify/WooCommerce purchases, carts, and customer value data will move. |
| Rebuild automations | Recreate Kit sequences/tags or Drip workflows, triggers, splits, delays, and exit conditions manually. |
| Replace forms and embeds | Update opt-in forms, landing pages, popups, checkout embeds, product funnels, and confirmation pages. |
| Recreate templates | Test text-first creator emails, ecommerce product blocks, coupons, personalization, unsubscribe links, and mobile rendering. |
| Reconnect integrations | Verify Shopify, WooCommerce, Stripe, payment tools, landing page tools, course platforms, and analytics connections. |
| Preserve reporting | Export campaign, revenue, product, purchase, subscriber, and automation reports before cancellation. |
| Launch by funnel | Move a low-risk sequence first, then cart, purchase, paid-product, and revenue-critical flows after testing. |
Where Sequenzy fits
Sequenzy fits SaaS teams that need transactional email, lifecycle sequences, newsletters, and Stripe-triggered automation. It is neither creator funnel software nor ecommerce CRM.
