Setting Up Mass Emails

Our system automatically sends a number of customizable emails that contain your contest and participant information, but we do not offer the option to send one-off marketing emails outside of these automatic emails.

To reach out to contest participants, you will probably want to use an email client that allows you to do mass email sends such as SendGrid, Constant Contact, or MailChimp.

You can attempt to send marketing emails through an email client such as Gmail or Yahoo but they will most likely limit the amount of sends you can do in one day.

Gmail, for example, will temporarily disable your account if you send messages to more than 500 recipients or if you send a large number of undeliverable messages. (source)
