Domain settings manage the email domains used for sending campaigns. Proper domain configuration is essential for email deliverability.

Why Domain Verification Matters

Verified domains:
  • Improve inbox placement
  • Protect against spoofing
  • Build sender reputation
  • Enable tracking features
Without verification, emails may:
  • Land in spam folders
  • Be rejected by receivers
  • Show security warnings
  • Have limited tracking

Accessing Domain Settings

Navigate to Settings → Domains from the sidebar.

Quick Start: RevBridge Test Domain

Get started sending emails immediately with a RevBridge-managed subdomain — no DNS configuration required.
1

Enter Sender Name

Enter a sender name (e.g., “Tyler” or “Marketing”)
2

Preview Address

The system previews your sending address: sender@yourcompany.revbridge.com.br
3

Save

Click Save to provision the subdomain automatically
The RevBridge test domain is provisioned instantly and has a daily send limit of 5,000 emails. This is ideal for testing campaigns and getting started quickly.
The RevBridge test domain uses your company slug as the subdomain. For production sending with your own branding, set up a custom domain below.

Adding a Custom Domain

For production use, configure your own domain for full control over sender reputation and branding.

RevBridge auto-generates the required DNS records for your domain
4

Add Records

Domain Lifecycle

StatusMeaning
PendingDomain added, awaiting DNS verification
VerifiedDNS records confirmed, server provisioning in progress
ReadyFully provisioned and ready to send
The system polls your domain status every 30 seconds and automatically selects the best available domain (preferring domains in “Ready” status).

Auto-Generated DNS Records

When you add a custom domain, RevBridge automatically generates 6 DNS records:

CNAME Records (3)

Verification

Checking Status

Each DNS record shows individual verification status. Click Verify Domain to re-check after making DNS changes. Once all records are verified, the domain enters the provisioning phase where RevBridge sets up your dedicated sending infrastructure. This typically takes up to 24 hours.

Domain Selection

When multiple domains are configured, the system automatically selects the best available domain based on status priority (Ready > Verified > Pending). Your selection is remembered across sessions.

Multiple Domains

You can add multiple sending domains:
Use CaseExample
Different brandsbrand1.com, brand2.com
Marketing vs transactionalmarketing.acme.com, notifications.acme.com
Regionalacme.com, acme.co.uk

Selecting Domain for Campaigns

When creating a campaign, select which verified domain to send from.

Subdomain Strategy

Consider using subdomains for marketing email: Benefits:
  • Isolate marketing reputation from corporate email
  • Easier to warm up new subdomain
  • Protect main domain reputation
Examples:
  • mail.acme.com
  • news.acme.com
  • offers.acme.com
Start with a subdomain for marketing. If reputation issues occur, they won’t affect your main domain email.

Domain Warm-Up

New domains need gradual volume increase:

Warm-Up Schedule

WeekDaily VolumeNotes
150-100Most engaged subscribers
2200-500Expand to engaged
3500-1,000Monitor metrics closely
41,000-5,000Scale if metrics are good
5+5,000+Continue scaling

Warm-Up Best Practices

  • Start with your most engaged subscribers
  • Monitor bounce and complaint rates
  • Slow down if metrics decline
  • Maintain consistent sending patterns

Troubleshooting

DNS Records Not Found

  1. Double-check record values
  2. Verify correct host/subdomain
  3. Wait longer for propagation (up to 48 hours)
  4. Use DNS lookup tool to verify
  5. Check with your DNS provider

SPF Record Issues

  • Only one SPF record allowed per domain
  • Merge multiple includes into one record
  • Check for typos in the record

DKIM Not Verifying

  • Ensure exact copy of provided value
  • Check for extra spaces or line breaks
  • Verify correct host (revbridge._domainkey)

DMARC Warnings

DMARC policies:
  • p=none - Monitor only (start here)
  • p=quarantine - Send failures to spam
  • p=reject - Reject failures (strictest)
Start with p=none while warming up, then increase strictness.

Removing a Domain

To remove a domain:
  1. Go to Settings → Domains
  2. Find the domain
  3. Click Remove
  4. Confirm removal
Removing a domain prevents sending from that address. Campaigns using this domain will fail.
