I'm just wanting to email a user a basic email like a welcome email.

Is this available on the paying plans?

Yes. :) With Google Cloud Function for Firebase (announced today) this is pretty trivial, example code here.

Nope. Firebase does not provide an open email service.

Update: But you can use Cloud Functions for Firebase to send email easily. In fact, sending a welcome message to new users is one of the examples provided.

  • Which email platform would you suggest for an angular2 and firebase project? I was thinking mail chimp or send grid? – AngularM Dec 23 '15 at 14:23

    Not sure why the original question was downvoted - it's a legitimate question (although it's been asked before). The answer to the comment is that you can obviously leverage your own mail server or work with another server service like [Zapier](http://www.zapier.com) who offers Firebase integration. – Jay Dec 23 '15 at 15:58
