Notify uses simple, usage-based pricing and includes a permanent free tier aimed at small teams and early-stage products.
Pricing tiers (as of 2026)
- Free: 1,000 transactional emails per month, 1 verified domain, and 48-hour delivery logs; no credit card required. cubed
- Pro: $10/month for 10,000 emails/month (effective $1 per 1,000). notify
- Scale: $50/month for 100,000 emails/month (effective $0.50 per 1,000). notify
Overage mechanics and exact limits beyond these buckets can change, so it’s worth checking the pricing page before committing if you expect to grow quickly.
What’s included in the free tier
The free plan is designed to cover basic product needs like password resets, verification emails, and simple onboarding sequences:
- 1,000 transactional emails per month – Enough for many small SaaS products in early stages. cubed
- 1 verified sending domain – You can send from your own domain after DNS setup. cubed
- 48-hour email delivery logs – Basic visibility into sends, bounces, and failures. cubed
- No credit card required – You can start sending immediately on the free tier. cubed
If you tell me your expected monthly volume (e.g., “~2,000 password resets + welcomes”), I can estimate which tier you’d land in and what your monthly cost would be.
