Mailtrap API
Development Tools
Mailtrap is an email infrastructure platform offering two complementary services: an email sandbox for safe testing during development and a transactional email API for reliable production sending. Together, they provide a complete email workflow solution for development teams preventing the common and embarrassing mistake of sending test emails to real users, while also providing production email delivery infrastructure when the application is ready to launch.
