Cheap Inboxes

1. 1

   You create an account and order mailboxes at the published per-mailbox rate, which drops at 100, 250, and 1,000 mailboxes. Google and Microsoft mailboxes cost the same.

2. 2

   You buy domains inside the platform from $2.50 a year or import your own from any registrar for free, then choose how DNS is handled: point nameservers to Cheap Inboxes, connect Cloudflare through its API, or ask for done-for-you setup.

3. 3

   Each domain is provisioned in its own isolated Google Workspace on an official Business Starter account with admin access, and DNS, forwarding, and tracking domains are configured.

4. 4

   You export the mailboxes to your sequencer from inside the platform. Instantly, Smartlead, Reachinbox, Reply, lemlist, EmailBison, and PlusVibe are named, and connections run over OAuth with automatic reconnection if one drops.

5. 5

   You manage the estate from the dashboard or the API, and message support on chat or WhatsApp at any hour when something breaks.

Per mailbox per month on published volume bands, identical for Google and Microsoft, with domains sold separately per year and no setup fee.

Value assessment: At 10,000 cold emails a month and about 30 sends a day per mailbox you need roughly fifteen mailboxes, which is about $52.50 a month plus a few domains at $10 a year, for official Google or Microsoft accounts in isolated workspaces. At 100,000 a month you need on the order of 110 to 150 mailboxes, landing in the $3.25 band at roughly $360 to $490 a month. That is close to Premium Inboxes, whose bands start at the same $3.50 and reach the same $2.80, but Cheap Inboxes reaches its lower rates sooner, at 100 and 1,000 mailboxes rather than 250 and 1,250. Against Zapmail's $39 for ten it is slightly dearer at the bottom and similar in the middle, without a bundle to buy into. The value case is not the name; it is published rates with no package minimum, one domain per workspace, and support that answers quickly. The refund exclusion for Google suspensions is the cost of that price.

Cheap Inboxes is a infrastructure tool, and a team running it still has 6 neighbouring categories to staff. The pick in each is MailStrike for email deliverability & warming, ZeroBounce for email verification, Apollo.io for B2B data providers, HubSpot CRM for sales CRM, Expandi for LinkedIn outreach and Zapier for GTM engineering, each the leading tool in that category on published criteria.

1. MailStrikeEmail Deliverability & Warming · Innovation

   Because

   Cheap Inboxes hands over new mailboxes with no sending history at all. MailStrike warms each on its own behaviour rather than a shared network, and tests placement before launch.

   Benefit

   Campaigns reach the inbox instead of the spam folder, and a reputation problem shows up before the send does.

2. ZeroBounceEmail Verification · Category Leader

   Because

   Cheap Inboxes is built for infrastructure, not verification. ZeroBounce covers verification on its own.

   Benefit

   Dead addresses come off the list before the send, so the bounce rate never touches the domain.

3. Apollo.ioB2B Data Providers · Category Leader

   Because

   Cheap Inboxes lists company information is thin beyond the founder's public profiles among its limits. Apollo.io adds unmatched self-serve coverage-per-dollar.

   Benefit

   Lists get built in minutes from filters, rather than bought, scraped, or typed out by hand.

4. HubSpot CRMSales CRM · Category Leader

   Because

   Cheap Inboxes is built for infrastructure, not CRM. HubSpot CRM adds one shared record across marketing, sales, service, content, and commerce.

   Benefit

   Every conversation ends up on a record, so a rep leaving does not take the pipeline with them.

5. ExpandiLinkedIn Outreach · Category Leader

   Because

   Cheap Inboxes is built for infrastructure, not LinkedIn. Expandi adds agency operations layer.

   Benefit

   A second channel reaches the people who never open email, without a rep doing it by hand.

6. ZapierGTM Engineering · Category Leader

   Because

   Cheap Inboxes is built for infrastructure, not GTM engineering. Zapier adds fastest time-to-first-automation in the category.

   Benefit

   The workflow nobody wanted to buy a whole tool for gets built in an afternoon.

Pairings follow the methodology: the leading tool in each complementary category, chosen on published criteria. Placement cannot be purchased.

Setup time

The FAQ describes automated setup in about ten minutes and the comparison table says same day, while the fulfillment policy says setup typically takes about 48 hours and longer for large orders. Plan on up to two days, then a gradual ramp.

Learning curve

Low. Ordering, domain import, and sequencer export are a few screens, and support will do the migration for you if asked. The judgement that remains is daily caps and how many mailboxes to put on each domain.

Onboarding

Self-serve with published prices; a call can be booked, and white-glove setup is available.

Migration notes

Existing domains import free from any registrar. Mailboxes connect over OAuth to standard sequencers, so switching sequencer means re-exporting. Purchased domains can be transferred out with an EPP code once they are sixty days old, so the domains stay portable if you leave.

Platforms

Web appREST APIOAuth connection to sequencers

API

A developer API at api.cheapinboxes.com provisions domains, mailboxes, DNS, and sequencer connections, with webhook notifications when each mailbox is live. API keys are self-serve.

Compliance

Mailboxes are official Google Workspace Business Starter and Microsoft accounts, subject to those providers' policiesWHOIS privacy on purchased domainsTerms of service governed by the laws of WisconsinNo compliance certifications published; CAN-SPAM and GDPR sender obligations remain the customer's

Data residency

Not published.

SSO

Not advertised.

Security notes

Isolation is at the workspace level, one domain per workspace, rather than a shared tenant. OAuth replaces app passwords for sequencer connections. The terms state that Cheap Inboxes does not control Google suspensions and issues no refunds for them.

Channels

24/7 live chatWhatsAppEmailBooked call

Documentation

API documentation, an inbox calculator, and a blog covering cold email setup, DNS, SPF, DKIM, DMARC, tracking domains, and deliverability tooling.

Community

No public forum. The site reports more than 1,000 GTM customers and publishes a wall of customer messages.

Ownership

Funding

Cheap Inboxes is a well-assembled provider-mailbox vendor under an unfortunate name. Official Google and Microsoft accounts at one published price from $3.50 down to $2.80, no bundle to buy into, one domain per isolated workspace with admin access, OAuth connections that reconnect themselves, a real API, and support that answers around the clock is exactly what an agency running dozens of clients needs from this layer. The terms deserve a read before you sign: no refunds for Google suspensions, seven days' notice to cancel, room to reprice inboxes after a year, and setup-time claims that range from ten minutes to two days. The company itself is young and publishes little. For a small team that wants twenty-five real mailboxes without buying thirty, or an agency that values fast human support over a managed service, it belongs on the shortlist next to Premium Inboxes and Zapmail.
