At a glance
SimpleLogin is the classic paid alias service: 10 aliases free, €30/year for the stuff most people actually want (unlimited aliases, custom domains, catch-all, two-way reply). It's a solid product — and a product you pay for.
emailforward.xyz takes the same core job — disposable aliases that forward to your inbox — and ships it without a paywall, without an account, and with Telegram delivery built in. Custom domains, two-way reply and a public API are in the free tier too, not behind a paywall.

Privacy · SimpleLogin
SimpleLogin runs on Proton infrastructure in Switzerland with a strong privacy track record. Premium supports PGP-encrypted forwards. Requires an account tied to an email and password.
Choose emailforward.xyz if…
- You want Telegram delivery — DMs, groups or channels — out of the box.
- You want custom domains and two-way reply without paying €30/year.
- You don't want an account, a password or a Proton ecosystem lock-in.
- You want unlimited aliases without negotiating with a free-tier cap.
- You route mail to more than one recipient per alias.
- You want a public REST API you can script against.
Choose SimpleLogin if…
- You need PGP-encrypted forwards (not on our roadmap today).
- You already pay for Proton Unlimited and want one vendor.
Verdict
SimpleLogin is designed for people who'll eventually pay €30/year — the free tier is the teaser. If you know you'll upgrade for PGP specifically, it's a fair deal.
For everyone else, emailforward.xyz is the honest alternative: the features SimpleLogin puts behind Premium — unlimited aliases, custom domains, two-way reply, public API, browser extension — are all in the free tier. Plus Telegram delivery SimpleLogin has never shipped.
