How to set up DMARC for Stripe in Valimail

Updated over a week ago
SPF(supported)
DKIM(recommended)

This article covers the SPF and DKIM authentication processes for Stripe and how they are managed in Valimail. While only one of the two authentication methods is required for an email to pass DMARC, our recommendation is to configure both whenever possible.

Configuring DKIM authentication for your Stripe emails

Add your domain

Navigate to your Customer email settings and add the domain that you want to send customer emails from.

Verify your domain

To verify your domain, you must configure the Domain Name System (DNS) records provided in the Dashboard. These DNS records are necessary to verify your domain ownership and reliable email delivery.

The procedure for adding DNS records to the DNS server for your domain depends on who provides your DNS service. Consult the documentation for your DNS service for specific instructions.

NOTE: If you manage you domain in Valimail, you will need to add the DKIM key/s on your domain's configuration page in the Valimail platform.

Set your sending domain

If Stripe has verified your domain, you’ll see a Verified badge under the Verification column in your Customer email settings. Customer emails are now sent from your domain. You can send a test email by clicking the overflow menu (***).
