The short version

Which one you want, in three sentences

Pick EmailLabs if your data has to be in Europe, or if a security review wants ISO 27001 and 27018 documents rather than assurances. We have neither.

Pick Email Bump if you also send campaigns and would rather not run a second platform, and US hosting is acceptable.

Pick neither if you want the cheapest EU rate, which is Scaleway TEM, or the longest retention, which is MailPace at 30 days on every plan.

Against us

Three places EmailLabs is the better choice

European servers, stated plainly. EEA-compliant infrastructure against our us-east-1. If residency is a requirement rather than a preference, nothing else here matters.

Certifications you can hand to a security review. ISO 27001 and ISO 27018, plus Certified Senders Alliance membership. We publish none of those. In a procurement process that's not a small difference.

A bigger free send allowance. 9,000 emails a month against our 5,000, albeit capped at 300 a day. On raw monthly volume theirs is larger.

FAQ

Email Bump vs EmailLabs, asked and answered

Do you have EU servers or ISO certifications?

Neither. Sending is from Amazon SES in us-east-1, and we don't publish ISO certifications.

EmailLabs, AhaSend, Scaleway TEM, MailPace, Lettermint, Sweego and Mailjet are the European options on the alternatives page.

Is Email Bump cheaper than EmailLabs?

For pure transactional volume, no — €23/mo for up to 100,000 emails is excellent value and we don't sell by volume.

For a product that also sends campaigns, we're cheaper, because that would be a second platform alongside EmailLabs.

How long do you keep logs?

Retention isn't tiered by plan here — the free plan sees the same history as the top one. EmailLabs keeps 7 days on Essential and 15 on PRO.
