Core principles
- Free inbound forever
- Receive mail at your custom domain at no cost. 1 mailbox, 3 aliases, 512 MB. No trial that expires, no credit card required.
- Cheaper than Zoho Mail
- $9/user/year billed yearly (or Rp120.000/thn in Indonesia). 25% below Zoho Mail Lite with zero compromise on webmail quality.
- Ad-free by design
- No banners, no sponsored inboxes, and no promotional sidebars. We charge a fair annual price so we never need to monetize your attention.
- Strict EU data privacy
- All servers and storage reside in Germany and Finland under EU GDPR jurisdiction. Mailboxes are private to their owners and never tracked.
- 100% White-label DNS
- Your DNS records point cleanly to mx.small.email. No third-party corporate vendor branding visible to your clients.
