FAQs
General
Does Mailtrap have a free plan?
Yes — free forever, not a trial. Each product has its own free tier:
4,000 emails/mo (Email API/SMTP),
50 test emails/mo (Email Sandbox),
500 contacts / 1,500 emails/mo (Email Marketing).
No credit card required.
Does Mailtrap charge per user seat?
No. Each plan includes a set number of seats, for example, Email API/SMTP Basic includes 3 users, Business includes 100 at no extra cost per teammate under that cap. See the plan tables above for exact counts.
Can I use more than one Mailtrap product on the same account?
Yes. Email API/SMTP, Email Sandbox, and Email Marketing are priced and billed separately, so you can mix plans however you need — for example, all three on Free; Email API/SMTP on a paid plan with Email Sandbox and Email Marketing on Free; or all three on paid plans.
If you'd like a bundle discount, get in touch with sales team: 20% off the cheaper plan for two products, or 20% off the two cheaper plans (with the priciest at full price) for three. See Bundle discounts above.
Is annual billing available for every product?
Email Sandbox and Email Marketing offer annual billing at up to 20% off. Email API/SMTP is monthly by default; annual pricing is available by request.
Choosing a plan
What's the difference between Email API/SMTP and Email Sandbox pricing?
Email API/SMTP scales with production emails delivered to real recipients. Email Sandbox scales with test emails captured during development or QA — they never reach a real inbox. Separate products, separate plans: testing volume never counts against your sending limit, or vice versa.
How is Email Marketing pricing calculated?
By contacts stored, not emails sent. Each contact tier includes a monthly email cap — e.g., 10,000 contacts = 30,000 emails/mo. See the Email Marketing pricing table above.
What if I need more volume than the largest listed plan?
Above 5,000,000 emails/mo (Email API/SMTP) or 250,000 contacts (Email Marketing), talk to Sales for custom pricing.
Limits & usage
What happens if I go over my plan's limit?
On Email API/SMTP and Email Marketing, extra emails are billed as overage rather than blocked, up to a per-plan cap — you're notified at 80%, 90%, and 100% of it. Full details are in the Payment and Billing FAQs.
