Plans start at approximately $8.95/month on renewal (intro from $1.79/month). 45-day money-back guarantee.
Email on FastComet
Bundled email
Unlimited email accounts on all plans via cPanel. IMAP, POP3, SMTP, and webmail. Default mailbox quota is 2 GB per account, adjustable through cPanel. SPF, DKIM, and DMARC configurable via cPanel’s Email Deliverability tools.
Sending limits
- 200 emails/hour
- No separately documented daily cap
- WordPress sends via PHP
mail()by default (unsigned, no SMTP auth)
The 200/hour limit is lower than SiteGround (400/hr) and Bluehost (500/hr) but adequate for most low-traffic WordPress sites.
When to add a third-party relay
When deliverability matters or volume exceeds the 200/hour cap. SMTP ports are open, so both SMTP-based and API-based plugin integrations work. Use a dedicated sending service (Postmark, SMTP2GO, Mailgun) for WooCommerce stores or sites with significant email output.
