Mailjet suits a small business that wants a simple, predictable bill and may also need to send receipts or account emails from its website. The free plan allows 6,000 emails a month to 1,000 contacts, with a 200 per day cap, and already includes APIs, SMTP relay, webhooks, the advanced editor and a form builder. Starter costs $9 a month for 8,000 emails and 2,000 contacts with no daily limit. Essential, at $19 a month for 15,000 emails, adds unlimited contacts, segmentation, AI-assisted content and removes the Mailjet logo. Premium, at $29 a month, is where automations, landing pages and advanced statistics appear. That split is the main drawback for marketers, since a welcome series needs the top self-serve plan. For a business that mostly sends newsletters and order emails, though, the entry prices are among the lowest here, and paying annually takes off 10%.
