Where Mailjet shines

  • Generous 6,000/month free tier
  • Collaborative template editing (real-time, like Google Docs) that agencies like
  • EU company heritage with strong GDPR/data-residency posture

If marketers and agencies collaborating in a visual editor are your primary users — or EU data residency requirements dominate the decision — Mailjet’s collaborative editor and European posture are real advantages. Its 6,000/month free cap is also the largest among major providers.

Why teams pick MailBlastr

  • The features you came for are behind Premium. On Mailjet, automation and A/B testing require the Premium tier ($27+/month) — Starter and Essential exclude them. Every MailBlastr plan, including Free, has automations, A/B testing, segments, and polls.
  • More volume per dollar as you grow. Mailjet Essential is $17/month for 15,000 emails; MailBlastr’s entry plan is less for 50,000. The gap widens at six figures of volume.
  • Developer-first, not editor-first. Mailjet’s center of gravity is the visual editor and marketer workflows; the API works but is secondary. MailBlastr leads with a typed API (8 SDK languages + CLI), copy-paste docs, signed webhooks, and an MCP server for AI tooling.
  • Predictable spikes with credits. MailBlastr sells prepaid credits that never expire for burst months. Mailjet handles overage by tier upgrades or hard stops depending on plan.

Frequently asked questions

Mailjet’s free tier is bigger — why switch?

It is: 6,000/month versus 3,000. But Mailjet locks automations and A/B testing behind Premium ($27+/month), while MailBlastr includes both on Free. The moment you need journeys or testing, the effective price flips.

Which is cheaper at 50,000 emails per month?

MailBlastr — its entry plan covers 50,000 for less than Mailjet Essential’s $17/month, which only includes 15,000.

Is MailBlastr GDPR-friendly like Mailjet?

MailBlastr supports the compliance basics senders need (one-click unsubscribe with RFC 8058 headers, suppression management, data deletion). Mailjet’s EU heritage and data-residency options go further for organizations with strict EU-only processing mandates — an honest Mailjet advantage.

Does MailBlastr have a collaborative template editor?

It has a block-based editor with AI assistance and shared templates, but not Mailjet’s real-time multi-cursor collaboration. If simultaneous editing is core to your agency workflow, Mailjet wins that feature.

How do I migrate from Mailjet?

Verify your domain, export templates as HTML, import contacts via CSV or API, swap sends to POST /emails (or an SDK), and re-point webhooks. Event types map directly.
