Description
The beehiiv integration is available to publications on the Max and Enterprise plans. Learn more about plans.
The official beehiiv plugin connects your WordPress site to your beehiiv account so you can create posts in the block editor and send posts to your newsletter subscribers.
Write once in WordPress, publish to your site, and queue the same post for delivery through beehiiv, without copying content between platforms or creating new content for your newsletters.

What is beehiiv?
beehiiv is an all-in-one newsletter platform built for creators, writers, and publishers.
It brings together everything you need to write, grow, and monetize an email newsletter in one place.
With beehiiv you can:
- Write and send professional newsletters with a drag-and-drop editor
- Build a website and landing pages for your publication
- Grow your audience with referrals, recommendations, and other built-in growth tools
- Monetize through paid subscriptions, sponsorships, and beehiiv’s native ad network
- Track performance with built-in analytics
beehiiv is designed for people who treat their newsletter as a core part of their business, not just another email blast.
You will need an active beehiiv account to use this plugin.
