How to add DNS records to your domain

Why is this important?

When your customers receive back in stock emails, their email service providers (Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, etc.) look for some DNS entries to verify if the email sender is a genuine, authorized sender. Without these DNS entries, emails land in spam.

Where can I find these DNS entries?

To find these DNS entries, go to Notifications from the App menu, click Customize email notifications, and in the screen that opens, select the Sender branding tab. Edit the From address to add an email with your domain name. Click Verify domain to see the 3 DNS entries you need to add.
