Frequently Asked Pricing Questions

Is there a free plan or free trial?

Yes. Every new account receives 100 free email credits upon signup with full access to all features, warm-up tools, and unlimited seats — no credit card required.

How many free credits do I get on signup?

You receive 100 bonus sending credits upon registration. You can connect unlimited mailboxes, start warm-up, and test outbound campaigns before purchasing any credits.

Do credits expire?

Prepaid email credits are valid for 12 months from the date of purchase. You can recharge your account and send at whatever pace suits your outreach schedule.

Do warm-up emails cost credits?

No. Automated inbox warm-up is 100% free and consumes 0 credits. You can warm up as many Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, or SMTP inboxes as you need without touching your sending balance.

Will AI features and email verification stay free?

AI Brand Intelligence, sequence generation, and email verification are included during beta at 0 credit cost. If credit costs are introduced in the future, advance notice will be provided.

What happens when I run out of credits?

Active campaigns pause gracefully without losing sequence positions or contact state. You can top up anytime from ₹500 / $5 to resume sending instantly.

Can I get a refund on unused credits?

Prepaid credits are generally non-refundable once purchased, as infrastructure resources are provisioned upon top-up. Erroneous duplicate transactions or billing disputes reported within 48 hours are refunded promptly.

Is GST included in the pricing?

Yes. All INR recharge prices displayed for Indian customers are GST-inclusive at the prevailing rate (18% GST). Invoices with your GSTIN are downloadable from your billing dashboard.

Why is AlienMail cheaper than Instantly or Smartlead?

AlienMail eliminates fixed monthly retainers ($47–$97/mo) when you aren't sending. You only pay for outbound emails dispatched (from $0.0003 / ₹0.03 per email), while warm-up, team seats, workspaces, and inboxes remain free.

Do you charge per connected inbox or per team seat?

No. You can connect unlimited sending inboxes and invite unlimited team members or agency clients across separate workspaces at $0 extra cost.

What if I need to send more than 1,000,000 emails per month?

For high-volume senders requiring over 1M credits per month, we offer dedicated high-throughput infrastructure and tailored volume pricing. Contact our support team for a custom quote.

Will prices change in the future?

Credit rates are published on the pricing page and may change over time. Rate changes apply only to recharges made after the effective date. Credits already purchased are honoured at the rate at which they were bought. AlienMail provides at least 30 days notice of any rate increase.
