Getting started

The shortest path from a new account to a first send.

Create your account

Open Create an account on the sign-in page (where sign-up is open) and give your name, work email and organisation name, then agree to the Terms. Shoovoo emails you a link; open it before it expires (a few days) to confirm your address and choose a password, and you land in your new account. If you were invited by a colleague, use the link in their invitation email instead.

A new organisation starts with an allowance of 500 emails shared across its accounts, until you verify a sending domain. Nothing is sent, and nobody can sign in, until you open the link.

1. Set up a sender. Add a sending domain and a sender address, and verify them. Until a domain is verified you can send only from the shared trial allowance. See Sender settings.
2. Add contacts. Import a CSV, add a form to your site, or use the API. See Contacts and segments.
3. Let consent resolve. Contacts without proof of consent receive a confirmation email and become opted in when they click it. See Consent and double opt-in.
4. Group an audience. Build a segment, for example everyone tagged customers.
5. Send. Write a newsletter in the email designer, schedule it, and follow it in Reports.
6. Automate. Once that works, build an automation that reacts to sign-ups or orders.

Optional: connect your store

Orders, carts and products can feed segments and automations. Open Ecommerce → Store Connection, or read Connect a store.
