Frequently asked questions

Group email (also known as email discussion list or listserv) generally refers to using a single email address to reach a group of people. For example, an email sent to riverdale-association@gaggle.email might go to everyone who is a member of the Riverdale Residents association.

See here for a complete description What is Group Email?

Good news! Groups of 200 or fewer members are completely free.

For larger groups our paid plans are based on the number of people within the group and have a 30-day free trial with no credit card required.

We have a Standard plan which starts at $0.10 per member per month, if you need more customization or want to use your own branding then we have our Premium plan which starts at $0.20 per member per month.

You can see full details of our pricing here along with a handy pricing calculator.

Like a regular Listserv, every group has it's own email address (like bookclub@gaggle.email) which anyone in the group can use to send messages to the group.

Also, members of a group can compose and send messages directly to the group from their membership page which they can access from the footer of any messages send via the group.

Not at all. You can create a group and start inviting members in under five minutes. There's nothing to install, no servers to manage, and no technical setup required.

If you want to use your own domain (like updates@yourorganization.org) there are a couple of DNS steps involved, but our support team will walk you through it. And if you'd rather not deal with DNS at all, your group works perfectly with a gaggle.email address right out of the box.

If you ever get stuck, our support team is available 24/7.

No. There is no limit.

You can send as many message as you like, with as many attachments as you need.

You certainly can.

There's a couple of options; you can either redirect messages from an email address you already own to your group, or for a more complete solution, you can host your MX record with us and we'll take care of everything.

Absolutely. We can migrate you from any platform, whether that's Google Groups, LISTSERV, Mailman, Groups.io, or anything else. We'll bring across your full member list and message archive so nothing gets lost.

If you'd like, we'll handle the entire migration for you. Just send us your data and we'll take care of the rest. It's completely free, and we've done it hundreds of times. Most migrations are finished within a day.

Get in touch at help@gaggle.email and we'll get you set up.
