Connect Your Domain to Send Emails

In order to send emails from GivFlow, you must first connect your domain, typically your church's website. In order to connect your domain, you need to add the website to GivFlow and then update the DNS record on your web host. If you're not sure how to do that, you can send the instructions to the person who set up your website right from GivFlow!

What emails are sent from GivFlow?

If you use automations, you can schedule emails to be sent to new donors, donors whose donations have failed, and more! These emails are sent from the your email address and can be customized with your church's language.

Go to the Email section of the Settings tab and choose + to add your church's domain.

The domain is the website after the @ on your email address. This is typically your website.

Once your domain is added, click View DNS and use the information from there to enter into your web hosting provider, such as GoDaddy, Namecheap, Google, and Cloudflare.

If you don't have access to your web hosting provider, click Send to enter the email of the person who has access and can enter the information for you. They don't need access to GivFlow; the email will contain the DNS settings they'll need for the web hosting provider.

Once your domain is verified, you can add your email address, which is the first step to using automation flows!
