Does Brevo allow purchased email lists?
No. As of 2026, Brevo (formerly Sendinblue) prohibits purchased, rented, and scraped contact lists in its terms of use. Brevo requires provable opt-in consent and suspends accounts with high bounce or complaint rates — which purchased lists almost always trigger on a shared-IP platform.
What's the alternative for purchased lists?
Hypermail allows purchased and cold email lists for both B2B and B2C audiences. It pairs that policy with the infrastructure cold lists need: 15+ step list verification, dedicated IPs with SmartRelay rotation, automated warmup, and send-speed controls. Plans start at $100/month for 100,000 emails, month-to-month.
Why High-Volume Senders Choose Hypermail
Brevo is a fine CRM suite — but it isn't built for cold lists.
Your List Won't Get You Banned
Brevo's compliance team reviews bounce and complaint rates aggressively because shared IPs mean one bad sender hurts everyone. Hypermail gives every account dedicated IPs, so your purchased list is cleaned, warmed, and sent without putting you at policy risk.
Verification Before You Send
Purchased data is only as good as its hygiene. Hypermail screens every upload and offers a 15+ step verification service that removes spam traps, dead domains, and risky addresses — protection Brevo doesn't provide for lists it doesn't allow.
Managed Campaigns & White Label
Need help? Hypermail offers fully managed campaigns — we run the sending for you — plus a white-label reseller program for agencies. Brevo offers neither for cold-list use cases.

Hypermail vs. Brevo FAQs
Why did Brevo suspend my account?
Brevo suspends accounts for uploading purchased or scraped lists, exceeding bounce-rate thresholds, or spam complaints. Because Brevo sends most mail from shared IPs, its tolerance for risky lists is low — one bad upload can end the account.
Can I migrate from Brevo to Hypermail?
Yes. Export your contacts and unsubscribed addresses from Brevo as CSV files, upload contacts to Hypermail, and import your unsubscribes as a suppression list. Hypermail supports files up to 90MB and lists over 10 million records.
How does Hypermail pricing compare to Brevo?
Both price by emails sent rather than contacts stored. Brevo's entry plans are inexpensive for small opt-in senders, but purchased lists aren't allowed at any price. Hypermail starts at $100/month for 100,000 emails including dedicated IPs and list cleaning — infrastructure Brevo charges extra for or doesn't offer.
Does Hypermail have an API like Brevo?
Yes. Hypermail provides a full RESTful API, SMTP API, and webhooks for campaign creation, list management, suppression handling, and real-time event notifications, plus Zapier integration. See the API documentation.
