More Ways to Connect Your Email"},"content":{"rendered":"\n

Email deliverability is at the heart of how your program communicates with your affiliates. Since launch, Wynta<\/a><\/strong> has supported Google Workspace<\/strong> and Mailgun<\/strong> for outbound email and today, we’re adding SendGrid<\/strong> to that roster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you’re already a SendGrid customer, looking to migrate from another provider or setting up email for the first time, this guide walks you through everything you need to get connected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who Can Set This Up?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Email integration settings are available to the Account Manager (Program Owner) or any Admin user with access to the Email Integration page in Settings. Once inside, navigate to Settings > Emails > Integration, select your preferred email provider: Google Workspace, Mailgun or SendGrid and fill in the relevant credentials. Each provider’s required fields are described in full below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SendGrid (New)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

SendGrid is a cloud-based email platform trusted by businesses worldwide for reliable, scalable email delivery. Connecting it to Wynta takes just a couple of fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Navigate to Settings > Emails > Integration and <\/strong>select SendGrid<\/strong> from the provider options.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. In the Email Address<\/strong> field, enter the sender address you would like to use for outbound emails from Wynta.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. In the API Key<\/strong> field, paste your SendGrid API key. You can find or generate this in your SendGrid account under Settings > API Keys. Ensure the key has at least Mail Send permissions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Once both fields are filled in, click Submit to store your credentials.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Click the Test Credentials <\/strong>button to confirm the connection is working.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Google Workspace<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Use your organisation’s Google Workspace account to send email directly through Wynta. Because Google requires an App Password for third-party access, there is a small one-time setup step on the Google side first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Step 1: Generate a Google App Password (External to Wynta)<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Google no longer allows regular account passwords to be used with third-party apps. You’ll need to create a dedicated App Password.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Sign in to your Google Account at myaccount.google.com.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Go to Security<\/strong> in the left-hand navigation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Under How you sign in to Google<\/strong>, ensure 2-Step Verification is turned on. App Passwords are only available when 2FA is enabled.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. In the search bar at the top, type App Passwords<\/strong> and select it from the results.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. You may be prompted to re-enter your Google password.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. Under App name<\/strong>, type a label such as Wynta Affiliate Program, then click Create.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    7. Google will display a 16-character password<\/strong>. Copy and save it immediately, you won’t be able to see it again.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Step 2: Connect to Wynta<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. Navigate to Settings > Emails > Integration and select Google Workspace<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. In the Username<\/strong> field, enter your full Google Workspace email address (e.g. hello@yourorganisation.com).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      3. In the Password<\/strong> field, paste the 16-character App Password you just generated, not your regular Google account password.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      4. Click Submit to store the credentials.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      5. Click the Test Credentials<\/strong> button to confirm the connection is working.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        Mailgun<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Mailgun is a developer-focused email API service that gives you fine-grained control over deliverability and analytics. Three fields are required to connect it to Wynta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        1. Navigate to Settings > Emails > Integration and select Mailgun<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. In the Domain<\/strong> field, enter the sending domain you have verified in Mailgun (e.g. mail.yourorganisation.com). This can be found in your Mailgun dashboard under Sending > Domains.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        3. In the API Key<\/strong> field, paste your Mailgun Private API Key. Retrieve it from Account Settings > API Keys in your Mailgun account.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        4. In the Region<\/strong> field, select the data region associated with your Mailgun account – either US or EU. If you are unsure, check the URL you use to log in to Mailgun: app.mailgun.com is US, while app.eu.mailgun.com is EU.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        5. Click Submit to store your credentials.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        6. Click the Test Credentials<\/strong> button to confirm the connection is working.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          Not sure which provider to choose? If your organisation already pays for one of these services, stick with what you have. If you’re starting fresh, SendGrid<\/strong><\/a> and Mailgun<\/a><\/strong> both offer free tiers with generous monthly sending limits – either works well with Wynta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
