Setup

From wp-admin to the inbox in 3 minutes.

No SMTP hosts, no ports, no DNS guesswork. The key you copy in step 1 is the whole credential.

1

Create your free account

Sign up with your email — no credit card. Your API key is on the dashboard the moment you're in.

2

Add your domain

Add the domain your site sends from and set two DNS records; MailKite configures SPF, DKIM, and DMARC for you. Or send instantly from a free subdomain while DNS propagates.

3

Paste the key into GoSMTP

In wp-admin, open GoSMTP → Connections, choose MailKite, paste your API key, and hit Send Test Email. That's the whole setup.

Why MailKite

The provider in the list with no domain tax.

GoSMTP gives you a dropdown of providers. Here's what's different about picking this one.

Unlimited domains, free

Most providers in the GoSMTP list cap the free tier at one verified domain. MailKite doesn't: every site you run — client sites included — sends from its own domain on one account, one API key.

Replies come back as webhooks

Sending is table stakes. MailKite also receives: point a domain at us and replies to your store receipts or form notifications arrive as clean JSON at any endpoint — something no other provider in the list offers.

Deliverability handled, humans on call

SPF, DKIM, and DMARC configured for you, delivery events logged, and graceful overage — your order emails never hard-stop at a quota. If something breaks, you reach a person, not a ticket wall.

Run many sites?

One account for every client site.

Agencies pay a domain tax everywhere else: one free domain per provider account, then per-domain pricing. On MailKite, domains are unlimited on every plan — including free. Add each client's domain, drop a scoped key into each site's GoSMTP settings, and watch every site's delivery from one dashboard.

Before you paste the key

Is MailKite really free for a WordPress site?

Yes. The free plan includes 5,000 emails a month across unlimited domains, with no credit card required. A typical WordPress site — contact forms, WooCommerce receipts, password resets — sends a few hundred emails a month, well inside the free tier.

What happens if my site sends more than 5,000 emails a month?

Your email keeps flowing — MailKite never hard-stops your sends at the limit. You're notified as you approach it and can upgrade to Pro ($20/mo for 50,000 emails, 50% off your first year during beta) in one click. No surprise cutoffs, no silent suspensions.

Do I need SMTP credentials or an API key?

Just the API key. GoSMTP's MailKite connection uses MailKite's send API directly — faster and more reliable than SMTP relay. If you ever need classic SMTP for another tool, the same account gives you smtp.mailkite.dev credentials too.

Can I use one MailKite account for all my client sites?

Yes — that's the point of unlimited domains. Add each client's domain to your account, use the same API key (or a scoped key per client) in each site's GoSMTP settings, and manage every site's deliverability from one dashboard.

Does it work with WooCommerce and contact form plugins?

Yes. GoSMTP takes over wp_mail(), so everything that sends email through WordPress — WooCommerce, Contact Form 7, WPForms, Gravity Forms, membership and booking plugins — goes out through MailKite automatically once the connection is set.

Your GoSMTP tab is still open. Go get the key.

Free account, unlimited domains, key on the first screen. Paste it into GoSMTP and send the test email — about 3 minutes end to end.
