Follow these 4 steps to activate your WordFly account and integrate with Centaman.

 

 

#1  Centaman Integration

Please contact your Centaman Account Manager for details on integrating with WordFly. Centaman will work with you to configure the WordFly integration and will contact us directly for testing. Once everything is tested and working, we will let you know in your onboarding ticket.

#2  Account Setup

Your WordFly account is already open, and we have emailed login credentials to your Primary Account holder. Didn’t get the email? Check your spam folder for an email from buzz@wordfly.com. Email us if you need help. Reach out to the Primary Account holder if you need a user account or aren’t sure if you have one.

 

All set? Log in, go to the Account section, and complete the steps below.
You must complete these steps before you can send email.

  1. Fill out your Organization Info

  2. Select your Email Pricing Plan

  3. Add From/Reply addresses, Google Analytics, branding, fonts

  4. Create your signup form, unsubscribe, preferences, and forward to a friend page

  5. Import unsubscribes from your previous ESP

#3  Make Sure You Reach the Inbox

You’re almost done, but this a really important step. Don’t skip it!

 

  1. Warm up your IP address.
    If you have more than 20,000 email addresses, you’ll need to start sending slowly. If you send to all your addresses at once, you’ll harm your sender reputation and have trouble getting your emails delivered. Follow the sample IP warmup plan.
  2. Decide if you want to publish a custom DKIM and/or DMARC record.
    Optional, but might be right for your organization.

All done?

Let us know by replying to the “Getting Started” email we sent you. Your Account Manager will schedule time to make sure everything is set up correctly. Can’t find the email?
Search your inbox for “Getting Started: Organization Name”
