A typical lead-magnet funnel on each

The funnel: opt-in page, thank-you page, a five-email welcome sequence, and a sales page with an order form.

Email volume is the hidden difference

ClickFunnels Launch caps sending at 50,000 emails a month. With 10,000 contacts that is five emails per contact per month, which a weekly newsletter plus a sequence can exceed. systeme.io lists unlimited sends on every plan, so its cost moves with contacts instead. [1][2]

At 10,000 contacts, systeme.io Webinar costs $47 a month against $81 to $97 for ClickFunnels Launch.

Fees, trials and refunds

  • Both say they take no percentage of your sales; your payment processor still charges its fee. [1][2]
  • ClickFunnels lists a 14-day free trial and a 30-day money-back guarantee after the trial. [1]
  • systeme.io has a free plan that does not expire, but its FAQ says payments are non-refundable. [2]

Switching considerations

We have not used these accounts for this guide. Everything here is taken from vendor pages and help articles read on 30 October 2026; plan grids change, so recheck the live page before you pay.

  • Pages do not move between builders; plan to rebuild each page and test it on a phone.
  • Export contacts with their tags, and recreate the tag logic as automation rules before importing.
  • Moving email sending to systeme.io requires authenticating your domain with CNAME and DMARC records. [6]
  • Change payment links and recurring subscriptions last, and ask your payment processor how existing subscriptions can be moved.
  • Keep the old account until the new funnel has taken a real sale.

Questions before you decide
