SendFox — Affordable and simple email marketing for content creators.
We were sick of all the email marketing tools out there that cost an arm and a leg... so we built SendFox to solve our own problem. SendFox is an affordable email marketing tool designed for content creators — bloggers, podcasters, YouTubers, and more.

@noahkagan The check out page when you first join says $200/month. If you do a one-time lifetime payment option, how do you sustain the service indefinitely?
@joewardpr Lots of ways but unsurprisingly most people don't email often and email sending costs are on the decline.
Plus, adding ways to help reduce sending to non-activated customers which is best for everyone.
@joewardpr @jack_zee Huh. This is not true. Email support@sendfox.com to get a refund or resolve your email issue. Not sure why posting here....
I have been using Sendfox for a few months now and I must say it is simply awesome to use. I love how easy and self understanding it is to use and how clean the look and feel is. I have sent tens of thousands of emails through sendfox with no issues! Def worth checking out!
Hi, guys! We're going to be here all day. I'm SUPER excited to be hanging out with you, and answering whatever questions you have. SendFox comes from our years of experience with email marketing at Sumo Group — we made the solution for us, and now we're sharing it with the world. 😃
To give a shout-out to the full team...
Noah is the CEO of Sumo Group, helping us give our vision.
I'm the General Manager of SendFox, running the day-to-day operations of the team.
Garrett is our backend developer making sure the app is epic and stable.
Marnie is another one of our backend developers helping make the app quality.
Henrique is our designer and frontend developer, making everything pretty and functional.
Samantha is our support lead making sure all your questions are answered.
Thanks to our ENTIRE team. We can't wait to see how you guys use SendFox!
They say Empire Add-On includes the following: Best sending Server, Up to 70000 sends per month, No Double Opt-In etc.
Next step: I send an email with 11% open rate...
And here is THE SURPRISE: "We Optimize your emails to HELP you."
Optimized emails will send to your best subscribers: Subscribers who have opened or clicked emails from your account over the past 6 months.
You can't decline this "help". You simply can't send emails to the whole contact list anymore. End of story :)
They do not openly mention this "feature". This is just a way to not provide the service for which the customer pays. I do not recommend using this service!
This looks super solid and I like that it's slimmed down to just the core, necessary features. Is SPF/DKIM verification available for sending from custom domains?
Surprised this doesn’t have more upvotes for being a great tool at a steal, but seeing all the pros I’m curious about the cons. Any takers?
@vonwilpert @stephenalan Here's the con. SendFox refuses to send my emails because apparently some of them bounced due to some of them changing of company. My list consists of my clients with >40% open rates. SendFox refuses to let me send any emails thereafter and refuses to refund me. Basically a scam and total waste of my money. I strongly advise to find another email tool.
@jack_zee Hi Jack/Jeffrey, I am sorry to hear that you feel that way. If you didn't like SendFox, our AppSumo deal comes with a 60 day money back guarantee and the lifetime deal on our website come with a 14 day money back guarantee. I hope this helps. To protect our user's deliverability and sender reputation, we limit their sending if their bounce rate is 3x higher than industry standards. We are happy to stop limiting the sending of a user if they take steps to reduce their bounce rate. Thanks for understanding :)
Sendfox review on AppSumo is biased. They are filtering out negative comments, you cannot trust sendfox reviews that are posted on AppSumo site. The SendFox product itself is mediocre at best - with the HTML editor you literally have to edit HTML yourself. Double opt in (unless you want to pay them every month), makes the whole product useless - if users have already opted in elsewhere. Deceptive tactics should not be used in filtering negative reviews, or holding them for few weeks in a queue (justifying as if they are busy with COVID), while most other reviews clear within a day.
Don't appreciate getting unsolicited emails from an email company asking me to upvote their product.
Hi David, I live in Europe, and I need to comply with GDPR.
In particular, in the event of an audit, I need to be able to prove consent by keeping records of how subscribers joined my list (things like the date consent was given, who filled out the form, and what specifically they consented to).
Can SendFox do this?
Hey @andreboso 👋 Samantha here from SendFox Customer Support.
In SendFox you can view specific contact information on their contact page. On this page we provide information on how they signed-up to your account (i.e a specific form, landing page, API, etc), date that they were added to your mailing list, the mailing lists they belong to, first name, last name, email and IP address.
Hope this helps :)
@sam_pty cool thanks! If I collect emails through a Sumo popup connected to MailFox, will I be able to record all of these data too?
yes, if you collect emails through a Sumo pop-up, the sign-up/source information will appear as API
@sam_pty ok but will I be able to see all the other data too (date, IP address, etc.)?
@andreboso yes, you will be able to see all of that when you look for a contact's 'profile page'
Wow, this is the first email service I've seen that doesn't charge an arm and a leg!
A few question about pricing which I didn't see on your website. I have around 8000 email subscribers that I send a weekly email to. How much does it cost?
Do you charge per subscriber or per mail sent? MailChimp isn't good for me because they charge per subscriber even if you don't send a single email. I'm looking for an email service that doesn't charge per subscriber but per send.
@rayliverified We have a current lifetime deal on AppSumo (https://appsumo.com/sendfox/) and you can see the pricing at the bottom of the page. You will need to buy 2 codes to have a contact limit of 10k. We don't offer lifetime pricing specifically for 8k contacts. We charge per 5k subscribers.
Looks like great beginnings and an awesome product here. I just bought the $49 lifetime AppSumo deal and am looking forward to using it.
Seems like there are some bugs with importing lists from MailChimp though that are hindering me from using it right away. I have a list that has 125 contacts in MailChimp that has 139 contacts when imported to SendFox. I also have a much smaller list of 7 contacts that I imported into SendFox and it is showing 90 subscribers. None of them are the same, and I have no idea where they are coming from. Can you please check it out? Account email: vance@vancelucas.com
@vancelucas @vlucas thanks for the feedback and glad to hear that you are looking forward to using it :)
Sorry to hear you are having issues importing your list from MailChimp. We haven't had this issue before but happy to continue the conversation and find a solution via email. Just sent you an email from support@sendfox.com :)
@vancelucas @sendfox @sam_pty Thanks for the email! I replied to it with a link to a video of the bug in action.
Very disappointed. Your team closed my account because i sent "affiliate emails" without any notice. These affiliate links were sent for my other website. The very bad part is that all is gone now including my list of subscribers.
I find how simple is to set up and use the platform, more valuable than its affordability. We are a bootstrapped company and it is mostly my business partner and I doing email marketing. We have no previous knowledge on using this type of system and it's been a breeze to set up our campaigns and newsletters. Kudos to the support team you at SendFox, particularly Garry. He has been extremely helpful.
I used to hate logging into mailchimp because it was so slow and complicated, and I would actively avoid it. It was real easy to migrate over, and I like SendFox a lot so far
By far the smoothest sailing ever. Sendfox gets a 10 star rating if it was possible. The setup is so intuitive and well organised. Transitioning has NEVER been easier.
I have for 4 organisations, now 4 sendfox accounts setup. It is that Good!
From an experienced user have been bogged down with:
- Automizy
- Active Campaign
- Mailchimp
- Mailerlite (or shall i say heavy)
all these 4 platforms are clunky and over-complicate the process of simply getting the message out to your subscribers.
BEST PLUS POINT: CUSTOMER TECH SUPPORT.
Sendfox is ever so foxy!
Warm regards,
Souvereign
