Self-service email marketing

Everything you need to run your email marketing.

All the tools you need to create, manage and grow your email marketing. Nothing bloated and nothing hidden: just solid sending infrastructure, set up to give every message the best chance of reaching the inbox.

Every account is checked by a person before it can send.

Pricing

Simple, honest pricing.

No complicated tiers, no confusing subscriber bands and no surprise charges.

Simple

One clear price

Your price is based on how much you send, and it's set out plainly before you start, with no hidden extras.

Commitment

A minimum monthly commitment

Every account has a minimum monthly commitment, so you always know the least you'll pay each month.

Your quote

Tailored to you

Once we understand your business, how you send and your monthly volume, we'll email you a clear quote. Ask for a quote.

What you get

Everything you need to send a newsletter, and nothing you don't.

Your own self-service dashboard, set up on your own domain, with the tools a newsletter actually uses. You run your campaigns; we run everything behind them.

Your own dashboard

Write, preview, test and schedule campaigns from a simple web app, with your logo on it.

Lists and segments

Import your list from a spreadsheet, keep extra details in custom fields and send to just the people a message is for.

Sign-up forms

Add a form to your website in minutes, with optional double opt-in so every new subscriber confirms their address.

Welcome emails and sequences

Send a welcome the moment someone joins, or a short series over the days that follow, without lifting a finger.

Clear reports

Opens, clicks, bounces and unsubscribes for every campaign, with the links people clicked and the countries they read it in.

Bounces and complaints handled

Dead addresses and spam complaints come off your list automatically, so they never drag your sending down.

Unsubscribes that work

Every email carries an unsubscribe link, and anyone who uses it is removed straight away. No one is ever emailed after leaving.

Personal touches

Use each reader's name or any other detail you hold, with a sensible fallback when it's missing.

Connects to your website

Add subscribers from your own site, shop or app through a simple API, or export your list whenever you like.

Deliverability

Built by people who know email.

Inbox providers decide where every email lands. We make sure everything on the sending side is right, from the people we accept to the records on your domain.

  • More than 25 years of email deliveryOur team brings over 25 years of hands-on email delivery experience to the platform. Our sending set-up has been built and refined over many years, and we protect its reputation every day.
  • Strict double opt-inWe only accept double opt-in lists, where every subscriber has confirmed their address. If you've bought a list, even one the seller swore was opted in, we're not the right fit for you. We're strict about this to protect our sending reputation and keep spammers off the platform.
  • Selective vettingWe don't accept just anyone. From our first conversation, we make sure we're the right match for your business and that your sending meets our standards. Everyone on the platform shares the same sending reputation, so this protects every genuine sender.
  • Domain check includedWhen you join, a person checks your domain's DNS by hand. We check and line up your SPF, DKIM and DMARC records, so your email meets the authentication standards Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo and business mail servers expect.
  • KT8 Tools Business Plus includedEvery client gets the Business Plus plan of KT8 Tools, our sister service, with its email delivery and DNS diagnostic tools for a deeper look at your domain's health.
Support

Support from real people.

Technical support should feel like talking to a trusted colleague, not shouting into the void.

No bots, no ticket queues

You'll always deal with a real person who understands email inside out.

Happy to talk

Email is often the quickest way to answer a technical question, but when you'd rather talk it through, just ask for a call.

Real technical know-how

Our support team understands the protocols and the fine detail behind modern email delivery.

Privacy and security

Your data, looked after properly.

Secure by design

Your account and subscriber lists are held on our servers in London, kept up to date with security patches and reached only over encrypted connections.

Registered with the ICO

KT8 Digital Limited is registered with the Information Commissioner's Office (ZC281514). For your subscribers, we act as your data processor under a data processing agreement, in line with UK GDPR.

Your business stays confidential

We never publish our client list, show your logo on our website or mention your brand on social media. What you send and who you work with stays between us. NDAs are available on request.

Monitored around the clock

Automatic checks watch our servers and sending day and night, and alert us straight away if something needs attention.

Reports and agencies

See what happened. Send for your clients.

Detailed reports

Bounce handling and spam complaint tracking come as standard on every account, alongside opens, clicks and unsubscribes for every campaign.

Agency and reseller options

If you run email marketing for your own clients, we can set up an agency arrangement to suit how you work.

Questions

Questions people ask

Why do I have to apply?

Because everyone's newsletter shares the same good reputation. Checking each sender by hand keeps spammers out and protects that reputation for everyone.

Can you promise my email will reach the inbox?

No one honestly can. Gmail, Outlook and the rest decide where each email goes, partly on how it's sent and partly on how your readers respond to it. We make sure the sending side is right, and if your numbers start to slip, we'll tell you what to change.

Can I bring my existing list?

Yes, if it's a double opt-in list, where everyone confirmed their address when they joined. Import it from a spreadsheet or CSV file, and tell us how the list was built when you apply.

Who runs my campaigns?

You do. It's self-service: you import your list, write, schedule and send from your own dashboard, whenever you like. We look after everything behind it, and we're here when you need help.

Can you keep our business confidential?

Yes. We never publish our client list or mention your brand anywhere, and we're happy to sign an NDA.

Do you design or write my emails?

No. You write your own, in plain text or HTML. Your newsletter stays in your own voice, and nobody bills you for design time.

Do I need my own domain?

Yes. Your newsletter is sent as your own domain, such as news@yourbusiness.co.uk. We'll tell you which DNS records to add, and check them with you.

How much does it cost?

Pricing is simple, with a minimum monthly commitment. No tiers, no subscriber bands and no surprise charges. Talk to us and we'll email you a quote, with no obligation.

What about UK GDPR?

You stay in charge of your list, and we only handle it to send your email. We never use or share your subscribers' details, and a data processing agreement comes as standard. KT8 Digital Limited is registered with the ICO (ZC281514).

What if my application isn't accepted?

We'll tell you, and where we can, we'll say why. Sometimes it's simply that a list needs a clean-up first, and we're happy to point you in the right direction.
