ZeptoMail
Zoho's transactional-only email service, prepaid at $2.50 per 10,000 emails; EU data center available.
Prepaid credits replace a monthly plan: each credit covers 10,000 emails for $2.50 and stays valid for 6 months, so low or irregular senders pay only for what they use. That works out at $0.25 per 1,000, more than Amazon SES but with no AWS account involved. It handles transactional mail only. Accounts can sit in Zoho's EU data centre, while dedicated IPs are billed annually, limited to some data centres and not publicly priced.
