Sending domains, set up for you

Stay chill. Your campaigns go out from sending domains of their own. Here's why, and what's set up for you when you add one.

Every domain that sends mail earns a reputation of its own. Your main domain keeps doing its job: your website, and your everyday email. Fresh sending domains carry your campaigns. So campaign traffic, and the reputation that comes with it, stays off your main domain.

Every sending domain needs a few records, so mail servers can trust what it sends. One proves the domain is yours. SPF says who may send for it. DKIM signs every email. DMARC ties both to the address your email comes from. And a return address on the same domain takes the bounces.

Here's where you add one. Search for a name, and the platform checks it's available. Add it, and every record is written for you.

A campaign needs at least four sending domains: a group. Build a group picks the rest for you from your search.

Already own a domain you'd like to use? Import it, and you're shown the records to add at your domain provider.

A campaign only sends from domains whose records check out. Each one then serves your landing page, and keeps its own pace with every provider; there's a film on each.

That's sending domains: fresh domains for your campaigns, set up for you, with your main domain kept apart. Next up: see why your reply-to address is verified. Don't freeze up!
