    Frequently Asked Questions

    Yes. IGSendMail's free plan includes up to 2,500 contacts and 3,000 emails per month with no time limit, which covers many small and volunteer-run organizations. When you outgrow it, verified 501(c)(3) nonprofits get 25% off every paid plan. Starter is $19/mo ($15 on annual billing) before the discount and includes unlimited contacts and 50,000 emails a month.

    A working donor program has four pieces: an immediate thank-you after every gift, a welcome series that explains your mission and where money goes, regular impact updates with specific outcomes, and timed appeals such as year-end or matching-gift campaigns. Add a monthly-donor invitation for one-time givers and an anniversary message on the date of a donor's first gift.

    Import each group with a tag or custom field, then build segments on giving history (first-time, recurring, lapsed, major), volunteer status, and event attendance. Donors who gave last year but not this year get a lapsed-donor sequence; volunteers get shift reminders and appreciation messages rather than appeals. IGSendMail's automation runs each segment's sequence without staff manually pulling lists.

    Yes. IGSendMail offers free done-for-you migration, typically completed within 24 hours, covering your contacts, tags, templates, and automations. Export your lists from the old tool, send them to the migration team, and they rebuild everything in your new account. Built-in email verification cleans invalid donor addresses during import so your first send does not bounce.

    Three things matter most: authenticate your domain, keep the list clean, and send to people who opted in. IGSendMail configures SPF, DKIM, and DMARC automatically for your domain, verifies emails on import to remove bounces, and reports 99% inbox placement. Consistent sending from the same domain, clear unsubscribe links, and removing long-inactive contacts do the rest.

    Yes. The drag-and-drop editor ships with templates you can adapt for donation appeals, thank-you messages, annual impact reports, volunteer recruitment, and event invitations. Save your own branded versions so every campaign reuses the same header, colors, and footer. Templates are included on every plan, including the free plan.
