SEA SaaS Tracker: 2026-09-05

Dated log of vendor pricing, feature, and funding changes for MailerLite, Zoho One, and Qashier from June through August 2026. Every line below is sourced.

MailerLite

  • On 2026-06-16, MailerLite renamed its Growing Business plan to Comfort and its Advanced plan to Power, and raised paid-plan prices across every subscriber tier by roughly 10% to 30%.
  • The Power plan at the 1,000-subscriber tier increased from $30/mo to $39/mo.
  • Post-rename, Comfort starts at $12/mo for 500 subscribers with a 5,000-email monthly send cap; Power starts at $25/mo for 500 subscribers with no send cap.
  • Existing paid accounts moved to the new plans and pricing at their next renewal date; accounts that made a manual plan change after 2026-06-16 moved to the new structure immediately.
  • Starting 2026-07-01, the Free plan dropped from 500 active subscribers and 12,000 emails/month to 250 active subscribers and 2,500 emails/month, with 2 user seats, and added caps of 3 active automations, 3 active forms, and 1 landing page and 1 website.

One pricing change against the paid tiers, one cut to the free tier, fifteen days apart.

Zoho One

  • Zoho One added Zoho Bookings to its list of supported bundled apps in August 2026 (exact day not published), joining Zoho Books, Zoho Expense, Zoho Billing, Zoho Inventory, Zoho Social, and Zoho Creator.
  • Zoho One's Identity Connect added two on-premises directory integrations in August 2026 (exact day not published): Zimbra LDAP-based directory sync, and Oracle Unified Directory sync for authentication and authorization.
  • On 2026-08-25, Zoho Deluge (the scripting language used across Zoho One apps) shipped a throw statement, letting scripts raise a custom exception with a message and optional data payload and stop execution on a failed condition instead of continuing silently.
  • No pricing-tier change confirmed for Zoho One this cycle.

The throw statement is a scripting-layer change, not a customer-facing feature — it matters to whoever writes Deluge automations inside a Zoho One account, not to an end user of the bundled apps.

Qashier

  • On 2026-06-30, Qashier announced it has been profitable every month since December 2025, on US$1 billion in annualized payment volume across more than 20,000 merchants in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and the Philippines.
  • The same announcement disclosed a US$6.125 million Series A+ round, combining equity and debt, led by Cocoon Capital, IFP Securities, and BlackSoil Global, with participation from strategic angel investors. Qashier has raised under US$20 million in total to date.
  • Annualized recurring revenue grew 61% year-over-year as of the announcement.
  • Qashier said the new capital will fund omnichannel-payments expansion, embedded financial services, and AI-enabled insights and workflow automation, plus a build-out for larger multi-outlet F&B and beauty/wellness merchants. None of these have shipped as of this announcement — they are funded roadmap items, not released features.
  • No pricing-tier change or new local-integration launch was confirmed for Qashier this cycle.

What didn't move this cycle

No new Shopee, TikTok Shop, VietQR, PromptPay, or GCash integration turned up for MailerLite, Zoho One, or Qashier. MailerLite's pricing move is the only tier-level fee change in this batch. Qashier's funding and profitability disclosure is not itself a product change — its listed roadmap items (omnichannel payments, embedded finance, AI workflow tools) have no shipped date yet.
