Why we’re changing our prices
MailerSend has come a long way since its launch. Over the past year, we’ve introduced a ton of new features that have seriously improved functionality. MailerSend is now a much more advanced transactional messaging solution than when we first set our prices.
Some of the new features include:
Transactional SMS: Connect with customers on a highly-used communication channel
Email verification: Optimize deliverability by cleaning your email list
Inbound routing: Create conversations with your users and catch all incoming emails
Dedicated IPs: Take full control of your email deliverability
Template split testing: Improve email performance with testing
Survey emails: Automate customer feedback with easy-to-create surveys
iOS app: Manage your transactional messaging on the go
New integrations: Connect to 18 tools, plus more via Zapier
The price changes reflect these updates and will help us continue to improve MailerSend over the coming months and years.
Speaking of which, we have plenty of exciting new features in the pipeline! Check out our product roadmap to see all our plans, and keep an eye on our product blog and email newsletter to find out as soon as features are released.
Here it is: New pricing structure
We’ve made 3 main changes to our plans, we’ve updated the prices of monthly plans, added a new annual plan with a 20% discount, and changed what you get in our free plan. Here is a look at each change in more detail.
1. Monthly price for new customers
The price of all premium plans has changed slightly—the exact amount depends on the number of emails you send. The below table shows how pricing will increase at different plan levels. Remember, the changes don’t apply to existing customers.
Only the price of the base plans has changed. The price for overusage, email verification and sending SMS messages has stayed the same.
2. Yearly subscription option for new and existing customers
We have also introduced a new annual plan that offers a 20% discount on the new monthly pricing.
In many cases, this will also be cheaper than the monthly prices of the existing plans—that’s right, you may be able to save by switching to a new annual plan.
See the table below for details about how your pricing will change if you switch from an existing monthly plan to a new annual plan.
New users can purchase an annual plan via the application after signing up. Existing customers should contact customer support via the dashboard widget to make the switch and get help transferring your account. Please note that switching from the existing pricing to the new pricing cannot be reversed.

3. Free plan for new customers
Starting May 22, free plan users will be able to send 3,000 emails per month, down from 12,000 emails on the old free plan.
Like with the paid plan changes, current free plan users won’t be affected: You’ll still be able to send 12,000 emails every month for free if your current plan allows it.
If you decide to upgrade to paid, you can choose one of our new monthly or annual subscriptions. Once you upgrade, you’ll be migrated to the new pricing model and won’t be able to go back to your old free plan.
All free plan users will continue to receive all the extras they need to support their transactional campaigns.
These features include:
Email support
Email API, SMTP relay, webhooks
Suppression management
Tracking and analytics
Drag & drop builder
HTML & rich text editor
Bulk emailing

Sounds good, what’s next?
Existing free and paid customers won’t see any changes to their plan pricing or features. You can continue using our leading transactional email service without these updates impacting your business.
If you’re a MailerSend customer and you’d like to switch to an annual plan to take advantage of the lower prices, contact support to move your account—we’ll be happy to help you make the switch.
