Looking for a SendGrid alternative?
IGSendMail is the affordable SendGrid alternative for businesses that want unlimited contacts, 99% inbox deliverability, and AI-powered tools — from $19/mo, up to 68% cheaper than SendGrid, with free 24-hour migration.
Why businesses switch from SendGrid to IGSendMail
Marketing campaigns + transactional + SMTP in one platform
Unlimited contacts on every paid plan
SendGrid charges more as your list grows — and often bills you for unsubscribed and duplicate contacts. IGSendMail never charges per contact.
Up to 68% lower cost
At 10,000 subscribers SendGrid runs about $60/mo. The same on IGSendMail is $19/mo — roughly $492 saved a year.
99% inbox deliverability, built in
Automatic SPF, DKIM, and DMARC, dedicated sending infrastructure, and built-in list verification keep your campaigns out of spam — tools SendGrid charges extra for or leaves out.
Free, done-for-you migration
Switch from SendGrid in under 24 hours. Import your lists, templates, and automations with zero downtime — we'll handle it for you.
