Sending with SEMSblast has been designed to fit around your budget no matter what your list size.
Whenever you send an email to subscribers, wether it's by adding a campaign, or adding an auto-responder you will need either Email Credits (If you are Pay as you go) or a subscription plan (Unlimited Sending or Free Forever) before your emails will be sent.
If you don't have a billing plan, or don't have enough credits to cover a campaign your emails won't be sent.
Billing Methods
