Free Plans and Considerations:
- Postmark: Doesn’t offer a true free plan, but has a 14-day trial with 25,000 emails. It excels in customer support and deliverability.
- Resend: Offers a free plan with limitations (typically a low monthly email limit). Check their website for specifics. It focuses on transactional emails and might not have a built-in confirmation link feature.
- SendGrid: Provides a free plan with 10,000 emails per month and limited features. It’s a popular choice with a good balance of features and free tier generosity.
- AWS SES: Requires an AWS account and has a free tier with limitations based on send volume and usage. It’s a powerful tool but can be more complex to set up.
- MailChimp: Free plan allows for 2,000 subscribers and 10,000 emails per month, but branding limitations might be present in free emails. It’s good for basic marketing automation, but confirmation links might require additional setup.
