Transactional Email, formerly Mandrill, is an email infrastructure service offered as an add-on for a Mailchimp account that you can use to send personalized, one-to-one e-commerce emails or automated transactional emails.
How Does it Work?
With Transactional Email, you can send emails through the Transactional API or SMTP integration. If you're already sending transactional emails for your website through SMTP, you can typically change your SMTP credentials to Mailchimp Transactional Email's and begin sending immediately. With the Transactional API, you can send emails, get information about your account, and view or parse reporting data in your own app or system.
How Much Does it Cost?
Mailchimp users on a paid monthly plan can choose the number of emails to purchase each month. We've built discounts into our payment structure, so your per-email pricing automatically decreases as you send more email. Calculate your monthly costs and view example volumes on our pricing page.
