What is LC - Email?

LC - Email acts as an email service provider hosted by the CRM, which has Incredible Deliverability, Error Monitoring, and Better Compliance and is much cheaper when compared to any of the email service providers in the market.




Why was this feature built?

Our Email ISV product is designed to help agencies avoid the hassle of signing up for Mailgun or any 3rd party email service provider. In the past, when an agency signed up they would need to either integrate with Mailgun or any other email service provider.


Like any other SaaS platform, the ideal solution is to have email work out of the box because that's how users expect a matured SaaS platform to work.

Historically, configuring SMTP has been a significant challenge for new Agencies regarding getting up and running. With LC - Email, sending & receiving email will work right out of the box with excellent deliverability.




LC - Email Pricing

We charge $0.675 for 1000 emails for all the plans at a lower cost than most major SMTP providers compared to $0.80/1000 with MailGun.

LC - Email Verification Pricing

Ramp-Up Model:

  • Every new sub-account(location) on the LC - Email System will follow the "Ramp Up Model."
  • The Email limitis multiplied each day by the number of days(till the 8th day) the location has spent with us. Starting the 8th day:
    • the location with a shared domain will have a limit set to 15,000 Emails/day. 
    • the location with a dedicated domain will have a limit set to 450,000 Emails/day. 
  • Below is the table which will give you a clear idea:


Day

Limit [Email]

1

250

2

500

3

1000

4

2500

5

5000

6

7500

7

10000

8th Day & Ongoing

Shared domain: 15000

Dedicated domain: 450,000


Please Note:

The daily counter resets every day at midnight 00:00:01 AM UTC. If the limit is reached before the rest time, the account is locked for the rest of the period.



Extend Sending Limit:


Please note: Validate the sub-account activity and make sure it is not a spam account.


1. Max limit for Shared domain is 250 to 15,000(To increase you have to set up dedicated sending domain for the location)


2. Max limit for Dedicated domain users is 250 to 450,000(To increase more contact support team)


 Using this option you can set up the sending limit level in the sub-account level.


Go to the sub-account detail page Agency Sidebar > Sub-account > Click on the Sub-account Name and scroll down to the additional settings section to increase the limit. 


Shared domain:


Dedicated domain:




How to fix it when my agency has a dedicated domain but my sub-account limit was set as 15,000 as a max limit?

A location without a domain will be considered a shared domain even if the agency has a dedicated domain.

Assign a dedicated domain to the sub-account in Agency settings -> Email services -> Location settings find the sub-account and assign the dedicated domain.
