Postscale vs Resend

The EU-native Resend alternative

Resend is great — if you don't need EU data residency, inbound parsing, or masked addresses. Postscale gives you the same clean developer experience plus everything Resend cut.

Why teams switch from Resend

EU-only processing

Resend is a US (Delaware) company. EU data is replicated but not exclusive; Schrems II assessments apply. Postscale keeps processing inside the EEA with no US parent.

Inbound email included

Resend does not offer inbound processing. If your product needs to receive email (support inboxes, reply-to-ticket, email-driven workflows), you need a second vendor. Postscale does both under one API.

Masked email addresses

No Resend equivalent. If your product has a privacy story, Postscale Shield gives you the 'Hide My Email' primitive on your own domain.

XRechnung / e-invoicing

For teams operating in Germany, the 2025–2028 mandate applies. Postscale ships an XRechnung/ZUGFeRD/Factur-X API; Resend does not.

Migrate from Resend in under an hour

1

Verify your domain

Same two-DNS-record dance you did with Resend — CNAMEs for DKIM plus SPF include. Our dashboard verifies as soon as DNS propagates.

2

Swap the client

If you use the Resend JS/TS SDK, our SDK has a near-identical surface. The /emails send body is structurally the same; mostly you're swapping the import and the API key.

3

Add what was missing

Point your MX to mx.postscale.io if you want inbound webhooks, or create your first Shield alias via /v1/shield/aliases. New capabilities light up without a second integration.

Frequently asked questions

Does Postscale integrate with React Email?

Yes. React Email emits plain HTML strings — pass them as html_body to our send endpoint and you're done. Same pattern as Resend.

What about Resend's audiences and broadcasts?

We don't ship marketing broadcasts. Postscale is focused on transactional + inbound + privacy. Keep broadcasts on a dedicated tool; we'll sync at the unsubscribe level.

Is the SDK stable?

Our Go, Node, Python, and PHP SDKs are versioned and backwards-compatible within majors. For early-stage projects, we recommend pinning to the SDK minor.

Any catch on the free tier?

1,000 sends per month, 50 inbound, 10 masked addresses. No credit card. No time limit. Stays free for as long as you stay under.

Ready to switch?

Free tier covers your evaluation. Migration is a DNS change and an API key swap.
