Email cost: per user vs flat fee
Per-user mail pricing charges for every person who needs an inbox. Flat plans charge for the capacity you need — domains, mailboxes, and send volume. For multi-domain startups, the second model usually wins once you add support@ addresses or a second brand.
The Workspace-style math
Public Business Starter–style list pricing is about $12 per user per month in USD. Multiply users × months × (sometimes) how you map domains, and annual cost climbs quickly for small teams with several projects.
That price includes Drive, Meet, and the rest of the suite. If you only needed mail, you still pay for the bundle.
The flat-fee math
Unbox Free includes one domain and one mailbox forever. Paid plans unlock more domains, mailboxes, storage, and send volume at a monthly flat rate — not a seat for every shared address.

Common questions
- Does support@ count as a paid user on Unbox?
- Shared queues are mailboxes in your plan limits, not separate “human seats” the way Workspace bills people. See the shared mailbox seat page for details.
