The best free funnel builders, compared

Only a few funnel tools have a free plan, and they differ a lot in what free means. Here is what each one includes, from its own pricing page.

This page contains paid links to Systeme.io and HighLevel. We may earn a commission if you sign up through them. Disclosure.

"Free funnel builder" can mean a free plan that never expires, a free trial that bills you in a week, or a free page builder with no email or checkout. This comparison separates them.

The short answer

  • Best free all-in-one funnel builder: Systeme.io. Its free plan includes funnels, checkout with no platform fees, unlimited email sends to 2,000 contacts, and a course, with no card required.
  • Best free option if you mainly need email: MailerLite. Its free plan includes one landing page and one website, but only 250 subscribers and 2,500 emails a month.

Systeme.io: the free plan to beat

Systeme.io is the only tool here whose free plan covers a complete funnel: pages, email capture, automation, email sending, checkout, upsells and order bumps, and a members area. Paid plans are $17 (Startup), $47 (Webinar, adds evergreen webinars) and $97 (Unlimited) a month, and annual billing gives two months free.

Watch for: the free plan's lifetime sales limit of $10,000 (per Systeme.io's help center), 1 automation rule and 1 email campaign on free, and 3 funnels.

MailerLite: email first, pages second

MailerLite's free plan is an email marketing tool with a landing page and a website attached. For a simple lead magnet funnel it works, but 250 subscribers fill up fast, and selling needs its digital product feature (one on free) or another checkout. Paid plans start at $12 a month (Comfort) and $25 (Power), and grow with subscriber count.

Best for: newsletter-first creators who want a polished email editor.

ClickFunnels: no free plan, big ecosystem

ClickFunnels starts at $97 a month ($81 billed annually) for Launch, with unlimited funnels currently marked as a limited-time offer, 10,000 contacts, 50,000 emails a month and 3 courses. Its plan table lists automations from the $197 Scale plan up. It offers a free trial and a 30-day money-back guarantee and says it takes no percentage of sales. Full comparison: Systeme.io vs ClickFunnels.

Best for: teams with ad budgets who want ClickFunnels' training and community.

Kartra: all-in-one, priced higher

Kartra's plans are Essentials $59 a month ($52 billed annually), Starter $119 ($99), Growth $229 ($189) and Professional $549 ($429). Essentials is limited to 500 contacts, 5 pages and 1 product and charges 5% transaction fees; Starter and above show 0% transaction fees and unlimited email. It offers a 14-day trial and a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Best for: established sellers who want helpdesk, video hosting and memberships in one paid tool.

Leadpages: landing pages, not full funnels

Leadpages builds landing pages, sites and blogs: Pro $29 a month (25 pages, 1 custom domain), Business $49, Grow $99 (adds A/B testing) and Optimize $199. It sends leads to your email tool through integrations rather than running email sequences itself. Its 7-day trial requires a card.

Best for: marketers who already have email and checkout and want fast, testable pages.
