    For you to enjoy all the benefits of email sending via the Emarsys infrastructure, we need to know that all the relevant aspects of your digital marketing strategies are compliant with our standards and with international legislation.

    For this we ask you to fill out our Email channel setup form.

    This article is to help you conduct your own audit, by drawing your attention to the areas where you need to be most careful. We ask you to read through it and send us a summary of your findings.

During the email onboarding process your emails are scrutinized more than ever, so giving us early visibility of potential issues helps us tailor a migration and ramp-up plan which will work for you.

    CSA allowlist

    As an Emarsys customer you can take advantage of our CSA certification. This certification is evidence of the highest standard in responsible digital marketing.

    CSA-certified senders like Emarsys must agree to comply with strict legal and technical quality standards for email. In return, their IP ranges are added to allowlists and receive priority inbox placement from the ISPs that respect these allowlists.

    What is CSA certification?

    To learn more about what the CSA is, watch this short video.

    What do I need to do?

    1. Read through the checklist below and verify that you meet the required standards.
    2. Complete and sign (or digitally sign) the application form and return the application form (fees apply*).
    3. Emarsys will then perform a CSA assessment.
    4. Passing the assessment allows Emarsys to assign you to a segregated delivery platform offering for certified senders, giving the very best delivery service.
    5. Should you be unsuccessful, Emarsys will explain what needs to be implemented to reach the CSA requirements.

    CSA assessment fees

    • Initial CSA assessment: €500.
    • Annual re-assessment, required for continued allowlist membership: €200.

    If your email marketing processes are not ready for CSA, you can still start sending with Emarsys without delay and defer the CSA assessment until you are ready.

    Sending via a CSA allowlist member IP range is expected by ISPs in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Failure to do so may harm inbox placement rates.

    For senders outside this region, having CSA allowlist membership is certainly an advantage because globally, ISPs will always be inclined to give preferential treatment to senders who have made the effort to be seen to be compliant.
