Every WordPress email, routed through Mailjet.

WordPress sends a lot of email: order confirmations, password resets, contact form replies, plugin alerts. By default, all of it goes out through your hosting server, which usually means no authentication, no logs, and no reliable delivery.

Mailjet is built for the job. WP Mail SMTP connects WordPress to it in a few minutes. Every email WordPress sends starts routing through Mailjet from then on, with proper sending reputation and visibility behind it.

Everything you need for reliable WordPress email

Inbox delivery

Mailjet’s sending reputation is separate from your hosting server. Your WordPress emails route through a network purpose-built for getting mail delivered.

Two-key setup

No OAuth, no Google Cloud Console. Paste your API Key and Secret Key from Mailjet into WP Mail SMTP once, and the connection is live.

Authentication handled

Add the TXT and DKIM records Mailjet provides to your DNS once. WP Mail SMTP routes through your verified sending domain from then on.

Email logs

Every email logged with delivery status, timestamp, subject line, and recipient. Know exactly what was delivered and what failed. Pro feature.

Failure alerts

Get notified by email, Slack, SMS, or webhook the moment a delivery fails, before your customers have to tell you. Pro feature.

Backup connections

If Mailjet has an outage, WP Mail SMTP automatically falls back to a secondary mailer. Your emails still go out. Pro feature.

See every email, never miss a failure.

WP Mail SMTP Pro adds email logs, failure alerts, and backup connections to your Mailjet setup. See every email that goes out, get notified the moment a delivery fails, and keep mail flowing if Mailjet ever has an outage.

Frequently asked questions

Have questions about using Mailjet with WP Mail SMTP? Get answers below. If you need further assistance, contact us.

Do I need WP Mail SMTP Pro to use Mailjet?

No. The Mailjet connection works on the free WP Mail SMTP plugin. Paste your API Key and Secret Key, and your WordPress emails start routing through Mailjet at no extra cost. Pro adds email logs, failure alerts, open and click tracking, and backup connections.

I already use Mailjet. Why do I need WP Mail SMTP?

WordPress’s default mail function sends through your hosting server, not through Mailjet. That means password resets, WooCommerce order confirmations, and contact form notifications skip the sending account you’re already paying for. WP Mail SMTP routes everything through Mailjet instead, so every WordPress email benefits from your sending reputation.

How is this different from using my host’s SMTP?

Your host’s SMTP has no delivery guarantees, no logs you can act on, and shares sending reputation with every other site on the server. If another site gets flagged for spam, yours suffers too. Mailjet is dedicated sending infrastructure with authentication built in, and WP Mail SMTP gives you a full log of every email that was sent or failed.

Can I use Mailjet with WooCommerce, contact forms, and other plugins?

Yes. WP Mail SMTP intercepts all WordPress email at the system level. Once connected, every plugin that sends email through WordPress, from WooCommerce order confirmations to WPForms notifications to membership site alerts, routes automatically through Mailjet. No per-plugin configuration needed.

What sending limits does Mailjet have?

Mailjet’s free tier sends up to 6,000 emails per month with a 200/day cap, and no credit card is required to sign up. Paid plans start at higher volumes with more advanced features. For most WordPress sites, the free tier covers contact forms, order confirmations, and password resets without issue. Check mailjet.com/pricing for current plan details.

How does Mailjet compare to SendLayer or MailerSend?

Mailjet bundles transactional and marketing email in one platform, which is useful if you already use it for newsletters. SendLayer is built by the same team as WP Mail SMTP, with one-click setup and unified support. MailerSend is a similar transactional service with a smaller free tier but a clean API. If you only need WordPress email and want the easiest setup, SendLayer is the lightest path.
