Mailjet pricing: the quick answer
Mailjet bills by monthly email volume, not contacts, and paid plans run $9/mo for Starter, $17/mo for Essential, and $27/mo for Premium at their default volume tiers as of July 8, 2026, over a free plan that sends 6,000 emails a month capped at 200 a day, with a quote-only Custom tier on top. Annual billing knocks 10% off. Those prices are entry-band figures: picking a higher send volume raises the plan price, and a dedicated IP with extra validations only appears at the 100K Premium band. Fine for high-volume senders who want unlimited contacts.

Mailjet Hidden Costs & Pitfalls
Mailjet's plan prices are quoted at the entry send volume. The volume selector and a few payment quirks are what move the real number.

Positioning
Mailjet bills on email send volume, not contact count, which is the whole pitch. Starter runs $9/mo, Essential $17/mo, and Premium $27/mo at their entry volume bands, all under the category median, and Essential onward gives you unlimited contacts. For a business sending high volume to a large list, that model is genuinely cheaper than contact-based rivals. Annual billing takes another 10% off.
Cost drivers
- 1The $9/$17/$27 prices are entry-band figures. Choosing a higher monthly send volume raises the plan price, and Mailjet did not publish the scaled numbers, so get a volume quote before committing.
- 2A dedicated IP and the larger validation allowance only appear on Premium at the 100K-a-month band or higher.
- 3Essential includes just 500 email validations a month; heavy list cleaning burns through that quota.
- 4Paying by wire or prepaid balance carries a $50 minimum deposit.
Watch-outs
Users report billing confusion, including invoices arriving under the Sendgrid name, and slow technical support when deliverability problems come up.
What users say
“They charge based off email volume rather than contact list size.”
“Our list is 60k... Costs us around US $275/mo which is very good value.”
Editor’s take
Teams with a big contact list and steady volume should land on Essential at $17/mo to escape contact-based pricing, and Premium at $27/mo if you need automations, landing pages, or team management. The number to pin down first is your monthly send volume, because that, not the plan name, sets the bill. If support responsiveness matters more than raw volume economics, Mailchimp at $13/mo is the alternative to weigh.
