Yeah, it can feel a bit odd at first.
MailerSend’s pricing tends to be “weird” because it mixes a few different ideas that aren’t always presented in the simplest way:
- Separate products: email sending, email templates, inbound routing, SMS, etc. may be priced/limited differently.
- Volume vs. feature pricing: some plans are based on how many emails you send, while other things are gated by plan tier.
- Pay-as-you-go vs. subscription: depending on your usage, one can look cheaper until you factor in extras.
- Credits/limits can be non-intuitive: included quotas may not map cleanly to how you think about “one email = one unit.”
- Add-ons or overages: a plan may look cheap until you exceed limits or need higher deliverability/support features.
If you want, I can help you:
- decode their pricing page,
- compare it to SendGrid/Mailgun/Postmark, or
- estimate your monthly cost based on your sending volume.
