Getting Started

Quick Start

  1. Sign into VerifyDMARC using the link in your Welcome email.
  2. Follow the prompts to add your first domain name and generate a DMARC record.
  3. Add the TXT record to your domain’s DNS manager.
    • Optionally: Add more domains by clicking Add Domain on the Domains page.
  4. Check the status icon on the Dashboard or Domains pages to confirm the DMARC record is setup correctly for us to receive reports.
    • A yellow exclamation or green check indicates a valid record.
    • DNS changes may take a few hours to propagate. Refresh the page to check the status.
  5. Return in 2-3 days to see DMARC data in the Dashboard.

FAQ

How do I know if my domain is set up correctly?

Within a few hours, you should see your domains showing a status in the VerifyDMARC dashboard. A red exclamation mark indicates an issue with your DNS record.

How soon will I see data in the dashboard?

If the domain is actively sending email, you should see data in the Dashboard in 2-3 days and the ‘View Senders’ link will be enabled.

How can I use VerifyDMARC in parallel with my existing DMARC report destination?

If you already have a DMARC record with reporting, you can use VerifyDMARC alongside your existing report destination by adding our report destination to your RUA tag.

Find your unique VerifyDMARC report destination at Domains > Show Advanced Information.

Example - if your existing DMARC record is:

v=DMARC1; p=quarantine; rua=mailto:dmarc@example.com;

Update it to include the VerifyDMARC report destination like this:

v=DMARC1; p=quarantine; rua=mailto:dmarc@example.com,mailto:org_example@example.verifydmarc.com;

Note: Use your organisation's unique report destination found on the Domains page, not the example shown above.
