Smartlead Plans and Prices

Plans are priced by email sends a month. Every plan allows unlimited email accounts.

Between Smart and Prime, the plan slider on the pricing page has more steps: 240,000 sends for $228, 330,000 for $282 and 420,000 for $336 a month. The slider labels its 510,000 step at $336, while the Unlimited Prime card and FAQ say $379 for 500,000; we use the card price. Annual billing saves 17% across all plans.

SmartSenders mailboxes

Mailreef SMTP has a minimum: "With Mailreef, you can purchase 15 domains and create 5 mailboxes per domain. (total minimum of 75 mailboxes)". Zapmail orders run from 1 to 20 domains with 1 to 5 mailboxes each.

What the Plan Includes

• Unlimited email accounts and warm-up. The warm-up pool tier depends on the plan: Foundation on Base, Growth on Pro, Premium (eligible for Ultrapremium) on Smart and Prime.

• On Pro and above: CRM, API and webhooks, client workspaces as an add-on.

• On Smart and Prime: unlimited contacts and verified prospect emails (50,000 on Smart, 170,000 on Prime).

• On Prime: 3 SmartServers with OAuth, 3 or more client workspaces, a dedicated manager.

Not included: mailboxes, domains and placement tests. Base has no API: "Pro and above. Base does not include API and webhooks."

Costs on Top of the Plan

The free trial lasts 14 days with no card and includes 2,500 sends and 1,250 contacts. The pricing page also shows "50% off on your first month on any plan". Fees are non-refundable: "we do not provide refunds or credits should you cancel the Service during its current Subscription Period."

What Smartlead Costs at 25, 100 and 400 Mailboxes

Monthly list prices with SmartSenders Google or Outlook mailboxes at $4.50 and the cheapest plan step that covers 550 cold emails per mailbox a month (25 a day on 22 working days). That is the same model as our provider comparison. Warm-up is in the plan, so the total is a full setup. Domains are left out.

25 mailboxes send 13,750 emails a month, above Base's 6,000, so Pro is the first plan that fits. 100 mailboxes send 55,000, still within Pro. 400 send 220,000, which needs the 240,000-send step. With Mailreef SMTP at $3.99 the mailbox line is lower, but the 75-mailbox minimum applies. With pre-warmed mailboxes at $9 it roughly doubles. Yearly billing lowers the plan part by 17%.

Smartlead vs Outreach2day

Outreach2day charges $2.50 per mailbox a month with warm-up, a sending engine (campaigns, sequences, one inbox for replies) and analytics included, from 12 mailboxes ($30), billed monthly by card. Domains are $13 a year for a .com and $5 for a .info. See pricing.

At every size in the table, the full setup costs less with us: $250 against $544 at 100 mailboxes. Differences to know: Smartlead sells Google and Outlook mailboxes (ours are SMTP/IMAP, not Google Workspace or Microsoft 365) and has a free trial (we have none). If you keep a Smartlead plan, our mailboxes sync to it by API key, and the mailbox line becomes $2.50 against $4.50. The side-by-side is at Outreach2day vs Smartlead.
