Hypermail vs. Constant Contact

Does Constant Contact allow purchased email lists?

No. As of 2026, Constant Contact's terms prohibit sending to purchased, rented, or appended email lists, and accounts that upload them face suspension. Constant Contact is designed for permission-based marketing to subscribers who opted in directly to your business.

What's the alternative for cold email and bought lists?

Hypermail allows purchased and cold email lists for B2B and B2C audiences. Every plan includes dedicated IP addresses, automated warmup, built-in list cleaning, and CAN-SPAM compliance tools, starting at $100/month for 100,000 emails with no contract.

Why was my Constant Contact account suspended?

The most common reasons are uploading a purchased or appended list, high bounce rates, or spam complaints above the platform's thresholds. Constant Contact requires prior consent from every recipient, so prospect lists violate its terms regardless of CAN-SPAM compliance.

Can I migrate my Constant Contact lists to Hypermail?

Yes. Export your contacts and unsubscribes from Constant Contact as CSV files. Upload contacts to Hypermail (up to 90MB per file, 10 million+ records per list) and import your unsubscribes as a suppression list so previous opt-outs are honored.

Is Hypermail cheaper than Constant Contact?

For large lists, usually yes. Constant Contact charges by contacts stored, so a 100,000-contact database is expensive every month even if you never send. Hypermail is $100/month for 100,000 emails sent, with unlimited contact storage and no contract.

Will my deliverability be better on Hypermail?

Cold lists need different infrastructure than opt-in newsletters. Hypermail gives you dedicated IPs (so no one else's sending affects your reputation), automated IP/domain warmup, send-speed throttling, and 15+ step list verification to remove spam traps and dead addresses before they hurt you.
