FAQ
Questions writers ask before switching.
How does the SMTP thing work?
You connect your own Mailgun, SendGrid, or SMTP provider. We never touch your emails.
What do you mean by no fees?
We charge $8/mo flat. We don't take a cut of your subscription revenue.
Is this Beehiiv without the fees?
Yes, that's exactly what it is.
What if I don't have SMTP?
Mailgun costs $10/mo for 10K emails. That's your total cost with Inkflow.
