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 Discussion 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.

Extra Lists

Extra lists for the Discussions Basic plan cost $150 and include 40,000 10kb messages per month each. There is also a $50 set-up fee per list for this option, which we'll waive if you purchase the extra list(s) when you first open your account.

Add-on lists for the Discussions Plus and Discussions Pro plans cost $75 per month. They do not include extra messages, but instead use part the total message volume of those packages. There is also a $50 set-up fee per list for this option, which we'll waive if you purchase the extra list(s) when you first open your account.

Custom Plans

Contact our sales department if your business requires a plan that includes more than 2,000,000 messages per month.

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.
