The ease of integration is super. I write predominantly in Golang for back-end services, and I had MailerSend integrated in about sixty seconds flat. I've moved to MailerSend for all transactional email services.
David G. Developer, Small business
It's really the most simple and powerful transactional email tool that I know. Price is really good. I've done several projects integrating MailerSend with Airtable and it works like magic.
Marcel S. Brand Strategy Consultant, Marcel S.
What's really worth mentioning is the outstanding customer support. Replies within minutes. MailerSend is extremely easy to use and super fast to set up. I was able to send the first email via the API in minutes.

Frequently asked questions

What are webhooks used for?

Webhooks are a kind of real-time communication bridge between different applications or services, allowing them to automate processes, integrate seamlessly, synchronize data, and provide instant notifications. They enable event-driven architecture, alerting, and efficient workflows by triggering specific actions when specific events occur. In email services like MailerSend, email webhooks are mostly used for receiving immediate updates on email events, such as deliveries, opens, clicks, or bounces, enabling users to track and respond to these events in real-time for enhanced communication, analytics, and added functionality for their applications.

Can an email trigger a webhook?

Yes, if you are using an email service provider that supports webhooks, like MailerSend, your emails can trigger webhooks. This is done by using webhook events, for example, activity.sent, activity.delivered, and activity.opened. The webhook is then triggered when these events occur—an email is sent, delivered or opened. 

What is MailerSend?

MailerSend is a transactional messaging service built to help developers get started quickly, and designed for whole teams to contribute.

What integrations does MailerSend have?

What is the difference between API and webhook?

Webhooks and APIs are both communication mechanisms between software applications. APIs (Application Programming Interfaces), establish rules for data exchange, enabling various interactions between systems. They involve making requests and receiving responses through predefined methods. On the other hand, webhooks facilitate real-time data transmission by sending HTTP callbacks when specific events occur. They are triggered by events in the system, allowing instant notifications and actions. While APIs support diverse interactions, webhooks excel in delivering timely, event-driven updates between systems without constantly polling the API. As soon as updates are pushed to the server, the JSON payload is posted on the callback URL.

Can a webhook send an email?

A webhook alone cannot send an email as webhooks are simply a way for one system to notify another system about events or updates by sending HTTP POST requests. You can, however, use a webhook to trigger an action in a system to send an email.

What options are available for developers?

We provide comprehensive technical documentation and 7 regularly updated SDK libraries (PHP, Laravel, Node.js, Golang, Python, Ruby, Java). Developers can simply plug in our email API or SMTP relay and MailerSend will do the rest.

How do you secure transactional email sending?

MailerSend is built on a secure email infrastructure, and our mail servers protect your email sendings with SPF, DKIM and DMARC authentication. 

We work hard to ensure that all accounts on our platform are legitimate and won’t be used for the purposes of spamming, protecting everyone’s email deliverability.
