Direct Mail

1. Packages are subscription-based and become available upon successful payment.

2. Service Period: 6 months. The term of validity is calculated separately for each package and not across multiple packages.

3. Deduction Methods: Mail usage will be deducted from the package quota during the term of validity. If you have multiple packages, messages will first be deducted from the package that expires first. When all packages are consumed, the deduction method will automatically convert to the Pay-As-You-Go payment model.

4. Users may not unsubscribe or receive a refund for unused resources once a package is activated or becomes expired.

Pay-As-You-Go is a post-payment method in which a user is charged according to actual consumption. The unit price is $0.29 USD per 1,000 messages.

The cost calculation formula for Pay-As-You-Go is total mail sent / 1000 x $0.29 USD.

The cost is accurate to two decimal places, with a minimum billing fee of $0.01 USD.

Each Alibaba Cloud Main Account for DirectMail has a total of 2,000 free letters, and a maximum of 200 free letters are sent each day.

If the user has a free credit limit, the free quota will not be included in the resource package or pay-as-you-go billing range, and the amount of mail exceeding the free quota will incur fees.

Email Verification

Email Verification is a pre-send process that systematically evaluates every email in a list through a combination of technical checks and proprietary algorithms to determine if it is syntactically correct, genuinely exists, and can successfully receive messages. Designed for email marketers, this validation step identifies and eliminates invalid, high-risk, or substandard addresses, thereby optimizing deliverability and safeguarding the successful transmission of your emails to target recipients.

This feature is available as a prepaid resource package, with each package valid for one year and supports repeated purchases. The pricing discounts are based on comparison of unit prices for the 10,000-unit package size.View Details>
