Email API FAQs

Twilio SendGrid is a cloud-based SMTP provider that acts as an email delivery engine, allowing you to send email without the cost and complexity of maintaining your own email servers. Twilio SendGrid manages the technical details of email delivery, like infrastructure scaling, ISP outreach, reputation monitoring, and real-time analytics.

Once you create a sender identity, you can send 100 emails per day on our free SMTP plan. If you need to send more than that, complete your account setup to upgrade to a paid email plan!

We also offer a Free Marketing Campaigns Plan. This lets you store up to 2,000 contacts and send 6,000 free emails per month. It also provides A/B testing, sign-up forms, automation, and email testing credits.

Sign up for my free account

Yes! If you want to use Marketing Campaigns and the Email API, you will need to purchase the email plans separately. But once you sign up, you can use the same account to send via the Email API or through Marketing Campaigns.

Learn more: How to Send Email With Marketing Campaigns

Our Email API and Marketing Campaigns products provide different features and functionality.

Marketing Campaigns is designed for users who need robust, ready-to-use tools for managing email campaigns. It offers features like drag-and-drop design, list management, and comprehensive analytics to monitor campaign effectiveness. The email campaign pricing is tailored to marketers focusing on engagement and long-term customer relationships.

Our Email API plan caters to developers looking to integrate email functionality directly into their applications or websites, offering maximum flexibility and control over how emails are sent and managed. The Email API plan is priced based on the volume of emails sent (and additional tools like Email Validation and Dedicated IPs) to accommodate the varying needs of apps from startups to large enterprises.

Every time you send one email to one recipient, it’s deducted as one email credit from your Email API plan. This occurs whether the email is ultimately deferred or sent to spam by the inbox provider.

Also note that emails you send via Marketing Campaigns will be counted separately from any emails you send via the Email API.

Learn more about the billing structure: Billing Info and FAQs

If you send more emails than your email plan allows within a given billing period, you will be charged a small overage fee on a per-email basis. Any overage fees are added to your invoice for the following billing period.
