One hub for every email service MetaReach Marketing offers — compare bulk campaigns, automation, transactional delivery, and SMTP infrastructure, and pick the one that fits your business.
MetaReach Marketing runs four email services for Indian businesses: bulk email campaigns (98% inbox delivery, from ₹0.50/1,000 emails), email automation (drip sequences and cart recovery that run 24x7), transactional email (99.9% inbox delivery, OTPs and alerts under 3 seconds), and a dedicated SMTP relay for developers. Fully managed campaign packages are also available with local teams in Noida and Delhi. Free 500-email trial on every plan, no credit card required.
WHAT WE DO
"Email marketing" covers more ground than most businesses realise. A newsletter, a password-reset email, and a cart-recovery sequence all travel through email — but they need very different infrastructure to work well. A promotional blast can tolerate a few minutes of delay; an OTP cannot survive more than a few seconds. A one-time campaign needs good copy; an automated sequence needs a workflow that fires itself correctly for months without anyone touching it.
MetaReach Marketing built separate, purpose-specific services for each of these jobs — rather than forcing every use case through one generic sending tool — and this page is the map. Below, you'll find what each service does, what it costs, and a direct link to the dedicated page for full detail. If you already know what you need, jump straight to Bulk Email, Automation, Transactional Email, or SMTP Relay. If you're not sure yet, the comparison below will make it obvious.
Six services, each built for a different job. Click through for pricing, setup steps, and full detail.

Why two pricing models? Infrastructure services (bulk, automation, transactional, SMTP) are self-serve and billed per email sent — you control volume and frequency. Managed campaign packages are a monthly retainer that includes strategy, copywriting, and design on top of the sending infrastructure — pick whichever matches how hands-on you want to be.
Most email providers put every client on a shared sending IP — one client's spam complaints hurt everyone else's inbox placement. MetaReach assigns a dedicated IP to every account, configures SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records for free, and monitors bounce and complaint rates in real time. That's the difference between the industry's typical 70-80% inbox rate and MetaReach's 98%+.
Most businesses need more than one channel. Here's how they compare, and where MetaReach's other services fit in.
| Channel | Best For | Typical Cost | Learn More |
|---|---|---|---|
| Detailed content, newsletters, automation sequences, transactional records | From ₹0.50/1,000 emails | Bulk Email → | |
| Bulk SMS | Instant alerts, time-sensitive offers, reaching users without opening an app | From ₹0.12/message | Bulk SMS → |
| WhatsApp Business API | Rich media, two-way conversations, verified brand messaging | Custom, volume-based | WhatsApp API → |
Email remains the highest-ROI channel for detailed, owned communication — no algorithm, no per-message platform fee. Combined email + SMS or email + WhatsApp campaigns consistently outperform any single channel used alone, because each channel reaches subscribers at a different moment: email for depth, SMS and WhatsApp for immediacy.
| Industry | Primary Use Case | Recommended Service |
|---|---|---|
| IT & SaaS | Trial onboarding, feature announcements, B2B lead nurturing | Automation |
| E-commerce | Cart recovery, order confirmations, delivery updates, loyalty offers | Transactional + Automation |
| Fintech & NBFC | OTPs, KYC alerts, EMI reminders, compliance notices | Transactional |
| Education & EdTech | Admission alerts, fee reminders, result notifications, course nurturing | Automation |
| Real Estate | Site-visit reminders, property updates, lead nurturing | Automation |
| Developers & Platforms | Custom-built sending logic via API/SMTP | SMTP Relay |

Every service includes a free 500-email trial so you can see real inbox placement before committing to a plan.
MetaReach configures your dedicated IP, SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records free of charge — typically completed within 20-45 minutes.
Your first campaign, automation sequence, or transactional integration goes live, with ongoing reporting on delivery, opens, and conversions.
Bulk Email — a promotional or informational campaign sent to an entire subscriber list at once, typically scheduled rather than triggered.
Transactional Email — an event-triggered message (OTP, receipt, alert) that must arrive within seconds, sent on infrastructure separate from promotional traffic.
Email Automation — a pre-built sequence of emails that fires automatically based on time or a subscriber's action, such as a welcome series or cart-recovery flow.
SMTP Relay — the server infrastructure that actually delivers your email to a recipient's inbox provider; used directly by developers via API or SMTP credentials.
Dedicated IP — a sending IP address used only by your account, so another sender's spam complaints can't hurt your inbox placement.
SPF / DKIM / DMARC — three domain authentication records that prove an email genuinely came from your domain, not a spoofer.
Inbox Rate — the percentage of sent emails that land in the primary inbox rather than spam or promotions. MetaReach averages 98%+ across services.
Open Rate — the percentage of delivered emails that are opened; MetaReach's managed campaigns average 30-40% versus an 18-22% India industry average.
We were paying for Mailchimp and still landing in promotions tabs half the time. MetaReach's dedicated IP setup alone took our inbox rate from around 75% to 97%+, and the bill dropped by more than half.
We needed OTPs to land instantly and promotional mail to stay separate. MetaReach split it into transactional and bulk from day one — no more OTPs stuck behind a newsletter queue.
Cart abandonment was costing us lakhs every month. The automation sequence MetaReach built recovers roughly 11% of abandoned carts now, running completely on autopilot.
Practical steps to protect your sender reputation and improve inbox placement, from list hygiene to authentication records.

Read the Guide →Four core services: bulk email campaigns (from ₹0.50/1,000 emails, 98% inbox delivery), email automation (drip sequences, cart recovery), transactional email (99.9% inbox delivery, OTPs under 3 seconds), and dedicated SMTP infrastructure. Fully managed campaign packages are also available in Noida and Delhi.

Bulk email is for scheduled campaigns sent to a full list at once. Transactional email is for instant, event-triggered messages like OTPs and receipts, delivered in under 3 seconds. Email automation is pre-built sequences — like welcome emails or cart recovery — that fire automatically based on subscriber behaviour and run 24x7.
98% on bulk and automation campaigns, 99.9% on transactional email — versus a 70-80% industry average on shared IP infrastructure. Achieved through a dedicated IP per client, free SPF/DKIM/DMARC setup, and active bounce monitoring.
Yes for cost and deliverability — roughly 15x cheaper at equivalent volume, INR billing with GST, and a free dedicated IP. Mailchimp still has a larger template and app-integration library, so the right fit depends on whether you value built-in design tooling or lower cost with hands-on deliverability support.
Yes — a free dedicated IP on every plan including Starter, REST API and SMTP credentials, and throughput up to 300 emails/second on the Business plan. Integration typically takes about 20 minutes.
One-time promotions or newsletters: Bulk Email. Automatic sequences like welcome or cart recovery: Automation. Instant OTPs or order alerts: Transactional Email. Custom sending logic: SMTP Relay. Want it all handled for you: a managed campaign package.
