To optimize expenses for your campaigns, it is important to choose an appropriate pricing plan that suits your goals and objectives.
When you choose your pricing plan, take into account 2 main things:
- The size of your contact list
- The frequency of your campaigns
In Selzy we have pricing plans based either on the number of emails or the number of contacts.
The Free plan is automatically activated for every user after registration. With this plan, you get to know the service and its capabilities. It is suitable for mailings to a contact base of up to 100 addresses.
The Lite, Standard, and Premium plans are only limited by the number of contacts to which any amount of emails can be sent. These plans are suitable for sending a large number of mailings to a stable contact base.
The Pre-paid Credits plan includes a specific package of emails that must be used up by the end of a billing period. This plan is suitable for sending a large number of mailings to an irregular contact base.
Check out the pricing plans options in Selzy. More on the pricing and plans in Selzy’s Help Center.
All Selzy plans have fine presets to help you quickly choose the plan that fits your needs. However, if you would like to have more contacts or send more emails than these presets offer, you can always reach out to our Support team and we will offer you a custom plan.
Let’s have a detailed look at the features of each plan.
Free plan
The Free plan includes all the basic tools of the service, however, the number of emails you send cannot exceed 1,500 per month. Besides, the total number of contacts in all the lists is limited to 100.
If the total number of contacts in all lists of your account exceeds 100, the Free plan will not work, and you will not be able to send emails.
On the Free plan, there will be a Powered by Selzy logo at the bottom of each email you send. On any of the paid plans the logo will not be added to the emails.
This plan is activated for 1 month and is prolonged unless you choose another plan or upload more than 100 contacts to Selzy.
The Free Plan is given as the pricing plan for the upcoming period and will be automatically activated by the system after the current one expires
Lite plan
The Lite plan includes a limited number of contacts only, whereas the number of emails during the billing period (a month or a year) is unlimited.
This plan is the best choice if you create frequent and regular campaigns to the same contact list (more than four campaigns to the same contacts per month).
After you subscribe to the plan on the Manage account page, your plan limit counter with the number of contacts will be enabled.
It’s important to note that on the Lite plan, you can not substitute contacts that have already been counted toward the plan limit. If you create campaigns for different contact lists, we advise you to choose the Pre-paid Credits plan since it has no contact limits.
The Lite plan contact lists limit includes all the contacts that got at least one email during the current rate period. Once you have added contacts and sent them emails, they will be included in your rate limit until the end of the billing period even if you delete them from all contacts lists. You will not be able to substitute the contacts counted toward the limit.
For instance, if you upload 1,000 contacts on the Lite plan and send a campaign to them, they will be included in your plan limit, and you will be able to send a limitless number of emails to them. If you delete them to substitute with other contacts, the system will notify you that your plan limit is exceeded and you will be offered either to upgrade your plan or to pay an additional charge for each email.
If there are not enough funds on your balance to pay extra charges for the exceeded Lite plan, your campaign will be put on hold. The system will advise you to activate a different plan or to top up your balance to be able to send emails.
Standard plan
The Standard plan includes everything from the Lite plan, as well as the built-in recommendations feature (anti-spam email check, email size check, and authentication check) and a free inactive contacts check-up.
This plan is ideal if you are just starting email marketing and would like to avoid the most common mistakes when creating a campaign and minimize the risk of your emails getting to the spam folder.
For more details about the features of the Standard plan, read the Pricing and Plans article.
Premium plan
The Premium plan comes with campaign management by the Selzy team. Our experts will take care of everything from setting up your account and launching your campaigns to using the most effective marketing mechanics.

Pre-paid Credits plan
This plan includes a particular number of emails that you can send within a given period of time (a month or a year) to any number of contacts.
This plan is best if you know the number of emails you intend to send. With this plan, there is no contact limit in the lists, that’s why it can also suit you if you send campaigns to a large number of contacts infrequently.
After you subscribe to the plan, you will see the maximum number of emails available to you (as well as the number of emails you have already sent on the plan) on the Manage account page.
You can subscribe to the Pre-paid Credits plan for a month or a year. When you choose this plan for a month, the given limit for emails is available to you for 30 days from the subscription date. If you opt for the year-long plan, it expires on the subscription date next year.
Each email exceeding the limit should be paid for separately. The cost depends on your location and currency.
The payment is deducted from your balance when the email is sent. The information on payment deduction can be found under Other payments in your Account settings or by clicking your Account ID and selecting Statements.
When you send your campaign, the system always warns you about the plan overdraft and the sum charged for extra emails.
If there is not enough money on your balance for the extra charge, your campaign is put on hold and you are notified to buy extra credit to top up your account.
How to pay for the plan you chose
To make a payment for the plan, click on your Account ID and then click the Upgrade button.
