System Emails Overview
System Emails are automatic emails sent by the platform on your behalf when specific events occur in your project. These emails ensure that users receive important confirmations, notifications, and updates related to their account activity, orders, bookings, and community interactions.
You have full control over these emails:
You can edit, disable, or replace them with your own automations if you prefer a fully custom communication flow.
Where to Find System Emails
To access System Emails navigate to Marketing > System Emails
This opens a grid of all built-in system emails that can be triggered automatically by the platform.
From here, you can:
- Edit the email content
- Disable the system email

How System Emails Work
Each system email is tied to a specific system event.
When that event happens, the platform automatically sends the corresponding email—unless you disable it.
Examples of system-triggered events:
- A new order is placed
- A subscription renewal fails
- A member registers or resets their password
- Someone mentions you in the community
đź’ˇ Important:
If you disable a system email, the platform will no longer send it automatically. You are then responsible for handling that communication through your own email campaigns or automations.
Available System Emails

Editing or Disabling a System Email
For each system email, you can:
- Open the email template
- Customize the subject line and content
- Disable the email entirely
If disabled:
The system will not send that email
You can replace it with:
- A custom email campaign
- An automation workflow
- A more advanced, branded email experience
đź’ˇ Best practice
If you disable a critical email (e.g. order confirmation or password recovery), make sure you have a replacement email in place to avoid breaking the user experience.
