What is Listmonk?

Listmonk on your own VPS.

Listmonk lets you write a newsletter, send it to your whole list and see who opened and clicked, all from one fast web dashboard. It is a free, open-source newsletter and mailing list manager built on Go and PostgreSQL. Listmonk hosting at ZAP-Hosting puts it on your own VPS: you pick Listmonk in the One-Click Apps installer and Coolify deploys the app with its database in one click, without a manual Docker setup.

Because the server is yours, so is your mailing list. With full root access you connect the SMTP relay you prefer, such as Amazon SES, Mailgun or Postmark, run Listmonk on your own domain, export the database whenever you want and host other tools like analytics or a landing page next to it. No platform bills you per subscriber, and Coolify gives you redeploys and logs right in the browser.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about Listmonk

Answers to the most important questions before you start.

Yes. Listmonk is free, open-source software, so there is no license fee and no charge per subscriber or per email from Listmonk itself. What you pay for is the server it runs on and the SMTP provider that delivers your emails. On ZAP-Hosting that server is your own VPS, with Listmonk deployed in one click.

  • Open-source license, no per-subscriber fees
  • Costs: your VPS plus your SMTP provider

Your total cost is the VPS package plus your SMTP provider's sending fees. Current VPS prices are shown live in the pricing section on this page, and Listmonk adds nothing on top. Because the VPS price depends on package, term and location rather than list size, your bill doesn't jump every time your subscriber count grows. Terms are flexible and you can cancel anytime.

  • VPS price shown live from the shop
  • SMTP relays usually bill per email sent
  • Cancel anytime

Order a VPS, open One-Click Apps in your dashboard and select Listmonk. Coolify then deploys Listmonk together with its PostgreSQL database. Once it's running, you open the Listmonk admin panel in your browser and add your SMTP details. No manual Docker or database setup is needed. Read the One-Click Apps guide

  • Choose Listmonk in the One-Click Apps installer
  • Coolify deploys app and database
  • Finish the setup in the web admin

You don't need to run a mail server yourself, but you do need an SMTP provider. Listmonk manages your lists and campaigns and hands each email to an SMTP relay such as Amazon SES, Mailgun or Postmark, which you enter in the Listmonk settings. Inbox placement then depends on that provider and on your domain's SPF, DKIM and DMARC records.

  • Use any SMTP relay, e.g. Amazon SES, Mailgun or Postmark
  • Several SMTP servers can be configured at once
  • Set SPF, DKIM and DMARC for your sending domain

Listmonk is a lightweight Go application with a PostgreSQL database, so a small package is usually enough to start a new list. If your list gets large, you send often or you run more apps on the same server, choose a package with more RAM and CPU. Every package includes root access and the one-click deploy.

  • Small package: new and growing lists
  • More RAM and CPU: big lists, frequent sends, extra apps

Yes. Every VPS gets a daily automatic Backup, included at no extra cost, so your Listmonk database and settings are covered. With the ZapX Pass you can view and restore those daily Backups, create your own manual Backups and snapshots, keep daily Backups longer depending on your tier and manage your Backup slots and storage limit.

  • Daily automatic Backup included
  • Restore, manual Backups and snapshots with ZapX Pass

Yes, you get full root access via SSH, so you can run Listmonk CLI commands, read logs, set up a firewall or install other software alongside it. Updates run through Coolify: you redeploy Listmonk with the newer version right from your browser. Check that your latest Backup is in place before a major update. How to connect via SSH

  • Full root access via SSH
  • Updates through Coolify in the browser

You can host Listmonk on a ZAP-Hosting VPS in any of our locations in Europe and America, deployed in one click with full root access. Pick the location closest to you, your readers or the region where your subscriber data should live. Many senders in North America start with Ashburn, Dallas or Los Angeles, while every other location works just as well when it's near your audience.

  • Locations in Europe and America
  • One-click deploy via One-Click Apps
  • More RAM and CPU for larger lists

Why are my Listmonk test emails not arriving?
The log shows your SMTP login was rejected. Check the username and password of your SMTP provider in the Listmonk settings.
And if the login is correct?
Check that your sending domain is verified with the provider and that SPF and DKIM records are set.
