What is BIMI?

About this tool

BIMI is the visual layer on top of your email authentication. Once you have a strong DMARC policy (quarantine or reject), you can add BIMI to display your logo in supported inboxes. This enhances brand recognition and can improve open rates by making your emails stand out. BIMI works best when combined with strong authentication—verify your SPF, DKIM, and DMARC settings are all properly configured for maximum deliverability.

Frequently Asked Questions

BIMI (Brand Indicators for Message Identification) is an email standard that displays your brand logo next to authenticated emails in recipients' inboxes, increasing brand recognition and trust.

BIMI requires: 1) A DMARC policy of 'quarantine' or 'reject', 2) A square SVG logo in Tiny PS format, 3) Optionally, a VMC (Verified Mark Certificate) for Gmail display.

Gmail, Apple Mail, Yahoo Mail, and Fastmail support BIMI. Gmail requires a VMC certificate, while others may display logos without one. Outlook does not yet support BIMI.

A Verified Mark Certificate (VMC) is a digital certificate that verifies your trademark ownership. It's required for BIMI logos to appear in Gmail and costs around $1,500/year from providers like DigiCert or Entrust.
