Why Switch From Fastmail to Typewire?

With Typewire, your emails never cross borders unnecessarily. We host everything on privately owned Canadian servers, protected by PIPEDA compliance and strict local privacy regulations.

Here’s why Typewire is a stronger choice for Canadians:

Keep your data private and local

Fastmail hosts your data in the U.S. or Australia. Typewire keeps your inbox on privately owned servers in Vancouver, BC. Everything stays under Canadian privacy laws (PIPEDA) for maximum protection.

No ads, no tracking. Ever

Fastmail says it’s ad-free, but many users still worry about metadata exposure. With Typewire, your inbox is never mined for ad dollars. Your emails, contacts, and habits stay yours alone.

Privacy and security by design

Typewire is built to protect your communications. Your messages are protected with strong encryption, zero-access storage, and spam/virus filtering built in.

Easy to migrate, easy to trust

Moving from Fastmail is simple. Bring your mail, contacts, and domain, and we’ll help you switch quickly and securely. Our migration process is easy and doesn’t require any coding/web dev expertise.

Built for Canadians

Freelancers, small businesses, and privacy-minded Canadians choose Typewire for inbox control without compromise. Since we’re a local company with local servers, your data stays here.
