Just wondering as I am seeing more and more logos for senders in e-mails is if there is a way to add that for Invision Community Cloud or Invision Community in general? Like in this screenshot how it has the PopSockets logo to the left of the senders name. I know this may seem stupid or trivial but to me it looks more professional. Thank you for your time.

This is known as BIMI… Brand Indicators for Message Identification. You can read more about it at:

How to add your email logo or brand mark to your emails -...

Learn everything you need to know to implement BIMI and add your email logo (or brand mark) to your emails in the inbox.

Most of the requirements are not too hard to meet (SPF/DKIM/DMARC setup) but the VMC/CMC is going to be the tough part. Those certs are not cheap… like $1000 per year for the privilege of having your logo show up.

You would also have to get the site approved/verified by the cert provider who will have their own requirements in terms of if they require a business license, trademark proof, etc.

Basically if you try to do this, you’ll jump through a TON of hoops and pay a bunch of money for the cert itself that makes this possible. For 99% of sites, this is too much effort for the small amount of return.

Thank you for providing this info. Yeah doesn’t sound like it’s worth the hassle.

As an update:

I believe you can do this through Apple for Business, but only for Apple devices/emails. You still need the SPF/DKIM/DMARC set up - but that seems to be it?

Is there a way for Cloud customers to do this, I wonder?

If you're using our own Cloud email handling, it sends from our own email domain and address so no.

If you are sending via your own email service, then it would rely on the email service and your DNS like it would outside of Cloud.

Thanks Jim, I assumed that would be the case.
