6 free alternatives to Maileroo

Mailmodo's free offer gives you 2,000 email sending credits, 1 team member, 1 active journey, up to 500 active contacts per journey, 1 custom domain, and access to A/B testing, send time optimization, timezone scheduling, template uploads, click maps, and API-based campaign export. It is a better fit if you want more of a campaign workspace than a delivery-first inbox, especially if you care about journeys and optimization tools. It falls short on raw sending volume, since the free credits are below Maileroo's 3,000 outbound emails per month, and its card requirement is unknown from the provided data. Switch if your priority is campaign workflow features rather than email throughput.

• Beats Maileroo: Campaign automation and optimization features
• Falls short: Free sending volume is lower than Maileroo
• Who should switch: Switch to Mailmodo if you want campaign tooling and journeys more than higher free send volume.

Mailjet's free tier includes 6,000 emails per month with a 200 emails per day limit, 1,000 contacts, APIs, SMTP Relay, webhooks, an advanced email editor, basic statistics, and a form builder. That makes it better for builders who want a combined marketing and transactional stack with more monthly sending room than Maileroo. It falls short on inbound handling and some delivery-side extras, since Maileroo's free tier includes inbound routing, email verification API access, dedicated IP, tracking, and reporting details that Mailjet does not list in the free items provided. Switch if your main issue is simply needing more free outbound volume and a broader contact list.

• Beats Maileroo: Monthly outbound email cap
• Falls short: No free inbound routing is listed
• Who should switch: Switch to Mailjet if you need more free sends and a simple marketing plus API setup.

MailerLite's free tier includes up to 500 subscribers, 12,000 monthly emails, 1 user seat, 1 website, 10 landing pages, 1 digital product or booking, signup forms and pop-ups, a drag-and-drop editor, automation builder, comparative reporting, and 24/7 email and chat support for up to 14 days. It beats Maileroo on free monthly sending volume by a wide margin and also adds full website and landing-page tooling. It falls short for delivery-focused workflows, since Maileroo's free plan includes SMTP relay, REST API access, inbound routing, webhooks, verification API access, and message logging, which are more relevant for developers and app-based sending. Switch if your work is mostly newsletters, landing pages, and audience growth.

• Beats Maileroo: Free monthly email volume and site-building tools
• Falls short: Less developer-oriented delivery infrastructure
• Who should switch: Switch to MailerLite if you want newsletters plus landing pages and more free sends.

Mailchimp's free plan includes up to 250 contacts, 500 emails per month or 250 per day, 1 audience, 1 user, email campaigns, forms and landing pages, Content Studio, basic reports, integrations, audience tools, surveys, tracking, and a free website builder. It is better if you want a familiar marketing suite with site and audience management in a very small free package. It falls short badly on sending capacity compared with Maileroo, and the free plan also lacks email scheduling and branding removal. Its value is in the breadth of audience and site features, not volume. Switch if you need a basic marketing hub and can live with a much smaller free send cap.

• Beats Maileroo: Audience tools and site-building breadth
• Falls short: Far lower free sending volume
• Who should switch: Switch to Mailchimp if you want a broad marketing suite for a very small list.

Loops' free tier includes up to 4,000 sends per month, up to 1,000 stored subscribed contacts, all features included, and the branding footer. It is especially appealing for developer-led teams that want one place for lifecycle emails, campaigns, and product-triggered messages without feature gating on the free plan. It beats Maileroo on the monthly send cap and keeps the feature set open, which makes it a cleaner fit if you want to test a full workflow before paying. It falls short on inbound email handling and the delivery-specific extras Maileroo lists, such as inbound routing, verification API access, and detailed message retention. Switch if your priority is product messaging and contact-based automation.

• Beats Maileroo: Higher free send cap with all features included
• Falls short: No free inbound routing is listed
• Who should switch: Switch to Loops if you want more free sending room for product and lifecycle email.

Plunk's free tier includes 1,000 emails per month, transactional email support for receipts and resets, workflow automation with triggers, delays, conditions, and branching, campaign broadcasts, custom domains with automatic DKIM, SPF, and DMARC setup, click and open tracking, unlimited contacts, and Plunk branding. It is the better fit for builders who want a developer-first mail stack and do not need a large free monthly volume. It loses to Maileroo on raw sending allowance, since the free cap is much lower, and it does not list inbound routing or verification API access in the free items. Switch if you want a lean transactional and automation setup with unlimited contacts and can live with a smaller send cap.

• Beats Maileroo: Unlimited contacts and developer-oriented automation
• Falls short: Free email volume is much lower
• Who should switch: Switch to Plunk if you need a simple transactional platform with unlimited contacts.
