Best Practices

  • Required: Keep your Support Email Address up to date — it's the contact point for subscriber replies and can be referenced in your messages.
  • Required: Add your Terms of Service and Privacy Policy URLs — these are needed for compliant opt-in tools.
  • Recommended: Set your Timezone to match your store's primary location so campaign scheduling is accurate.
  • Avoid: Leaving your Company Name blank — it appears in opt-in tools and should match your brand.
