How it works

Three steps. Five minutes. Done.

No server knowledge needed. We guide you through every DNS record — just paste what we give you.

1

Add your domain

Type your domain name. We instantly generate DKIM keys and show every DNS record you need — MX, SPF, DKIM, DMARC — with copy buttons.

2

Paste DNS records

Copy each record into your registrar (Namecheap, Cloudflare, GoDaddy — anywhere). Our live checker shows green checkmarks as they propagate.

3

Create mailboxes

Add hello@, info@, or [email protected]. Connect any email client. You're live and authenticated.
