Send out user invitation emails

What's in it for you

When you invite your sales reps to start using Showpad, we send an automatic email with instructions. These instructions explain where to sign in on Showpad, display the login credentials, and where they can download the mobile apps and email plugins.
It is not possible to change the content of this email. However, you can add a custom footer that can, for example, describe your organization's privacy policy.
 
If you have users reaching out that they didn't receive the invitation email, it's possible it was incorrectly categorized as spam. Ask them to check the spam folder to look for Showpad's invitation email. You can also whitelist the showpad.com domain if you want to prevent this from happening.

We send out these invitation emails from our domain. The Shares, sent out by the users, can be sent from your domain. To set up your sending domain, take a look at this article.
