Getting started

1. Create your account

Go to the sign-up page, enter your name, email and a password. You'll land on the dashboard once your account is created. No credit card required.

2. Connect a sending server

Open Dashboard → SMTP and click Add SMTP. You'll need:

• SMTP host (e.g. smtp.gmail.com, mail.yourdomain.com)
• Port (usually 587 for TLS or 465 for SSL)
• Username and password / app password / API key
• The "From" address that this account is allowed to send as

RAPID SMTP runs a live connection test before saving. Detailed walkthroughs per provider live in Connect SMTP.

3. Send a test email

From Dashboard → Send email, fill in a recipient, subject and body, then press Send. Watch Email logs for the delivery status — accepted, deferred or bounced.

4. Import contacts (optional)

For campaigns, go to Contacts → Import and upload a CSV. Duplicates are skipped automatically. See Contacts & templates for merge tags and segmentation.

5. Configure DNS for the best deliverability

Add SPF, DKIM and DMARC records for the domain you send from. See Deliverability for copy-paste records.
