beehiiv vs İleti Merkezi

beehiiv is a newsletter platform founded by former Morning Brew engineers, including CEO Tyler Denk, to give independent publishers the growth tooling that helped Morning Brew scale. It handles writing, sending, hosting and monetizing a newsletter in one place, and has grown quickly since its public launch in 2022.

Every publication gets a visual editor with polls and surveys, a hosted website with SEO-friendly archives and custom domains, segmentation and analytics. The free plan covers up to 2,500 subscribers with unlimited sends. The paid Lite plan, priced by list size, unlocks the features that matter for growth: a referral program, Boosts (paid recommendations from other newsletters), the beehiiv Ad Network, paid subscriptions through Stripe, automations and A/B tests. Pro removes beehiiv branding and adds webinars and advanced analytics, and Enterprise adds dedicated IPs and SLAs.

beehiiv suits media-style newsletters, niche publications and journalists who treat the newsletter as the business. Its referral and ad network features have no real equal among email tools. It is not built for e-commerce lifecycle marketing (Klaviyo), creators selling courses and digital products (Kit), or SaaS product email (Customer.io). Substack is the main alternative for writers who value its network effects more than control over branding and monetization.

Over 2024 and 2025 beehiiv kept expanding beyond email with a richer website builder and AI writing tools, positioning itself as a full publishing platform.

İleti Merkezi is a Turkish bulk SMS and business messaging provider serving companies that need to reach customers by text message in Turkey. It handles the main SMS use cases local businesses have: one-time passwords and verification codes, transactional notifications such as order and shipping updates, appointment reminders and promotional campaigns sent under a registered sender name.

Developers integrate through an SMS API to send single or bulk messages and query delivery reports, while marketing teams can use the web panel to upload contact lists, schedule campaigns and track results. Ready-made plugins connect e-commerce platforms so that stores can send automatic order notifications. Because commercial electronic messages in Turkey must be registered with İYS (İleti Yönetim Sistemi), the national consent management system, İleti Merkezi provides İYS compliance support for promotional sends, while transactional messages such as OTPs follow separate rules. Pricing is published as prepaid SMS packages in Turkish lira with VAT included and no fixed monthly fee, and the unit price drops as package volume grows.

İleti Merkezi suits Turkish e-commerce stores, clinics, schools and SaaS products that need local SMS delivery with Turkish sender names and İYS compliance. It is a regional provider, so companies messaging customers in many countries usually prefer global platforms such as Twilio, Vonage or Infobip, while other Turkish providers such as Netgsm and Verimor compete on price, voice services and support.
