Email providers

StoreHippo allows you to set up custom email gateways that you can use to send emails instead of using the standard StoreHippo email service, which allows you to white label the emails that go out. The custom email gateways can also be used to sync user mailing lists in order to send marketing campaigns.

Setting up a custom email gateway

Before you set up a custom email gateway, please create an account with the email gateway. Once you have created the account with the email gateway, follow these steps to set up the gateway on StoreHippo:

Go to StoreHippo App Store.

Find and select the desired app from the app store.
Once you have selected the app, click the Install button to install the gateway.
