# Resend

> Connect your own sending account, verify delivery and manage customer invitation emails.

Send supported customer invitations and card-install links using your own
Resend account and verified domain. Manage the connection inside **Perkstar →
Integrations → Resend**. This is a business integration; white-label ownership is
not required.

## What uses this connection

Initial invitations, invitation follow-ups and supported customer card-install
emails, including install links for imported customers. Importing a customer
record alone does not send an email or prove permission to contact that person.

Perkstar sign-in, security and billing emails remain separate. Connecting Resend
does not enable the retired manual marketing email composer, send SMS, or
configure Klaviyo flows.

## Before you start

You need the business owner's own Perkstar login, email-feature access, a Resend
account and a verified sending domain. A staff login or Perkstar support preview
cannot connect it on your behalf. A closed or suspended account remains blocked.
Resend can independently reject, suppress or limit mail from your account.

Read the [email sending and connection terms](https://dashboard.perkstar.co.uk/email-provider-terms).
Activation is an explicit choice after a signed delivery test. It does not
restart a stopped campaign or resend previously accepted invitations.
