Important Pricing Details
Contracts
All Hosted Lyris ListManager plans have a six (6) month minimum
contract.
Custom Domains
The email lists we host typically use a GridSouth domain, such
as @ls1.gridsouth.com. The "Custom Domain" allows you to select
your prefered domain name, for example: @news.yourcompany.com.
Custom Domains cost $100 per month each for the Newsletter
Basic plan, and are included with all other plans. Extra Custom
Domains are available for $100 per month each. There is a $50
set-up fee for this option, which we'll waive if you purchase
the Custom Domain when you first open your account.
Minimum Monthly Fees
You are responsible for your minimum monthly fees each month.
By purchasing a Hosted Lyris ListManager plan, you agree to
pay the minimum monthly fee even if you have no mailing activity
during a particular month.
Message Volume: Size and Quantity
Message volume is a factor of both the actual number of messages
you send, and the average size (in kb) of those messages over
a one-month period. The plan prices above include a specified
number of messages and assume a monthly average message size
of 10kb. Please note: if your total message volume exceeds this
amount during a particular month — either due to message quantity
or size, or both — your total bill for that month will be higher
than the plan amount.
Rates for messages averaging more than 10kb follow a sliding
scale based on the effective CPM rates in calculated increments.
For example, messages with an average monthly size of 20kb sent
with a Newsletter Pro plan are charged at $4 per thousand; if
the monthly size were 25kb, the charge would be $5 per thousand.
