Welcome to Postmark — Getting Started for New Customers
When a new customer reaches out, it’s a great opportunity to make their first experience with Postmark smooth, welcoming, and easy.
This guide covers what to expect from Postmark support, key resources for getting started, and how to make the most of your first setup steps.
💌 Welcome to Postmark
We’re thrilled to have you here! Postmark helps you send fast, reliable, and trusted emails — whether that’s password resets, receipts, account alerts, or newsletters.
Our goal is to make email delivery easy and transparent, so you can focus on building your product, not troubleshooting email.
💬 How Support Works
At this time, Postmark offers email-based support.
We don’t currently provide phone or Zoom support, though it’s something we’re exploring for the future.
Our email support is handled directly by knowledgeable Postmark specialists (not chatbots or outsourced teams). We typically reply within a few business hours and make sure every answer is clear and actionable.
If you’re getting started with an integration or tool like Prospect 2 or Tessitura, you can share your setup details in your initial message. This helps us provide tailored guidance right away.

Send your first test email
⚙️ Developer and API Docs
Postmark Developer Docs — Explore our REST API, SMTP setup, and official libraries.
Message Streams Overview — Understand how separating transactional and broadcast emails improves deliverability.

💡 Tips for a Smooth Start
Start with your transactional emails. These are usually the most critical messages (like password resets and sign-ups) and a great way to test deliverability.
Use the API if possible. It’s faster, more flexible, and ideal for modern applications.
Keep transactional and marketing traffic separate. Postmark’s Message Streams make this easy — it protects your reputation and improves inbox placement.
Reach out early. The more context you share about your setup, tech stack, or goals, the more specific guidance our team can offer.
