Which one should you pick?
Pick GetResponse if
- the headline percentage matters most: up to 60% against 20%.
Pick SMTP2GO if
- you work as reseller: GetResponse doesn't list that track.
Either way, the program that earns more is the one whose product your readers already want. A higher rate on something they won't buy pays nothing.
