How to choose a MailChannels alternative
- Confirm the vendor helps with DLT registration and template approval; that is the operational bottleneck.
- Ask for delivery rate reports on your target circles before you buy volume.
- For OTPs, check latency and fallback options — a slow OTP costs sign-ups.
