SnailPostal vs the rest
SnailPostal is free to list, with no monthly fee — the first $100 a club earns each month is fee-free, and a 4.5% platform fee applies only above that. See full pricing. Patreon and Shopify price differently again — a percentage of revenue on one, a flat monthly fee on the other — so exact cost isn't a row below; each comparison page works out what that actually means for a mail club.
