Overview
Privy and Klaviyo are the most common pair of tools for serious Shopify stores. Privy captures visitors as subscribers. Klaviyo turns those subscribers into revenue.
Using both together is the gold standard, but it means paying for two platforms. Sequenzy at $29/mo offers a more affordable email alternative to Klaviyo that you can pair with Privy's free popup plan.
The Common Setup
- Privy (free or paid) captures emails with popups
- Klaviyo (or Sequenzy) automates email campaigns to those subscribers
- Revenue flows from automated abandoned cart, post-purchase, and welcome sequences
This works because Privy and Klaviyo are strong in different areas. Privy's popup builder is better than Klaviyo's. Klaviyo's email automation is better than Privy's. Together they cover both sides.
The Budget Alternative
If Klaviyo's $150+/month is too much, Sequenzy gives you AI-built email automation and native Shopify integration for $29/month. Pair it with Privy's free popup plan and you get solid list growth plus real email automation for under $30/month total.
