Mailforge Plans and Prices

Mailforge has no named plans. It sells slots for SMTP mailboxes on shared infrastructure, and the price per slot depends on how many you buy.

The monthly price falls by $0.10 for every 100 add-on slots. Per the calculator, the first 10 slots are always billed at $3, and the number of slots above 10 sets the tier for the rest. You pay for every slot you buy, including empty ones: "If you purchase 10 slots but only create 5 mailboxes, you are still charged for all 10 slots."

Yearly billing gives 2 months free on slots. There is no discount on domains.

What the Slot Price Includes

• SMTP mailboxes on a shared IP pool. Google and Microsoft mailboxes are Primeforge, and dedicated IPs are Infraforge, both separate Forge products.

• Automated DNS setup (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) and a tracking domain.

• Inbox hosting and maintenance, and support.

• A public API and an MCP server.

Not included: warmup, a sequencer and placement tests. The pricing FAQ says each Forge product is billed on its own: "At the moment, you will need to subscribe to each product you want to use separately."

Costs on Top of the Slot Price

There is no free trial: "we don’t offer a free trial, however, you are free to explore the app without any domains and mailboxes after signing up." There is no contract, and you can cancel any time. Prepaid fees are not refunded: the terms say "We will not refund any prepaid fees".

Mailforge Coupon Codes, Free Trial and Free Transfers

We looked for every discount on November 4, 2026. Mailforge's pricing page, FAQ and home page list no coupon code. What exists:

So the 15% figure that circulates with Mailforge links is the referrer's commission. The cheapest way to pay Mailforge is yearly billing, and moving existing domains in costs nothing.

What Mailforge Costs at 625, 2,500 and 10,000 Emails a Day

Monthly cost on monthly billing, from the slot tiers above. The full setup adds warmup and a sequencer: we use the cheapest Salesforge plan that covers the volume (method), because Mailforge mailboxes cannot be warmed in Instantly and Salesforge includes Warmforge warmup. We compare at the same emails a day, each vendor at its own emails per mailbox a day: a cheap mailbox that sends fewer emails needs more mailboxes for the same volume. Mailforge is counted at 30 cold emails a mailbox a day, Outreach2day at 25, because Instantly includes warmup in the plan. Domains and masking are left out.

The 334-slot line is 10 slots at $3 plus 324 add-on slots at $2.70. With Warmforge instead of Instantly warmup, add its per-slot price (at 25 slots, $11 a month billed monthly or $9 billed quarterly), unless you send through Salesforge, which includes Warmforge. With SSL and domain masking on every domain, add $2 per domain a month. On yearly billing the slot cost drops by a sixth ($62.50 a month for 25 slots).

Mailforge vs Outreach2day

At every size in the table, the full setup costs less with Outreach2day: $150 against $434 at 2,500 cold emails a day, before Mailforge's $2 per domain for masking, which we include. Mailforge's slot is $3 a month on monthly billing, without warmup or sending. Both minimums are $30 a month: 10 slots at Mailforge, 12 mailboxes with us. Both sell SMTP mailboxes. Most people think only Google gets to the inbox and overpay for it. Our mailboxes run on our own infrastructure and land in the inbox. The side-by-side is at Outreach2day vs Mailforge, other options are in Mailforge alternatives, and Mailforge against the other vendors, scored, is in our ranking of cold email infrastructure providers.

The Mailforge review covers the shared-IP trade-off, the Forge MCP server and the cancellation rule. Its sister product with dedicated IPs is compared in Mailforge vs Infraforge, and a Google and Microsoft seller in Mailforge vs InboxKit. Mailscale, which also sells shared-IP SMTP inboxes but in plans of 15, 50 and 200, is compared in Mailscale vs Mailforge and the Mailscale review.
