## Pros and cons

**Pros**

- Unlimited contacts from the Essential tier up
- Real-time collaborative editing is genuinely unusual among transactional-capable platforms
- MJML + drag-and-drop both supported

**Cons**

- Combined marketing/transactional sending carries the same reputation-mixing risk as SendGrid
- Lowest email-volume ceiling per dollar of the group at entry tiers

## Pricing

Month-to-month price first (what you pay without committing), then the annual-commit rate.

- **Free**: $0/mo on an annual commitment; month-to-month price not published
  - Includes: 6,000 emails/mo, 200/day cap

## Specification

| Attribute | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Automation Builder | Yes |
| Dedicated IP | No |
| A/B Testing | Yes |
| Source IP allow/deny* | No |

*Source IP allow/deny listing: whether you can restrict which IP addresses may use your sending credentials (SMTP/API), checked against each vendor’s official documentation, 2026-09-01. SendGrid, Mailgun, SMTP2GO and SparkPost offer a native allowlist (no denylist); Amazon SES has no native switch but achieves both allow and deny shapes through IAM policy conditions. Postmark, Resend and Mailjet document no such control.

## Our review

Mailjet blends transactional and marketing sending in one account, similar to SendGrid but at a lower price point, and adds a distinctive real-time collaborative editor plus MJML support for developers who want code-level template control alongside the drag-and-drop builder.
