Brand Settings Overview: How Branding Works in POINT
Brand Settings lets you customize the look of every email your organization sends through POINT: your logo, colors, footer links, and social media icons, so volunteers instantly recognize your organization instead of seeing the default POINT look.
Once you set up your branding, it automatically applies to your email templates. There's no need to re-style each one individually.
How branding fits together
Branding in POINT works in three connected steps:
- Brand Settings. This is where you design the look: your logo, brand colors, footer links, social icons, and organization address.
- Email Templates. When you create a Custom Template (or use a System Template), you choose which Brand Settings should apply to it.
- Sending Emails. When you send an email using a template, the branding you configured is automatically included, no extra steps needed.
Who has access to Brand Settings?
Access depends on your role:
| Role | Access |
|---|---|
| Owner | Full access, can view, create, and edit all branding |
| Admin | Full access, can view, create, and edit all branding |
| Program Coordinator | Coming soon |
| Other roles | No access |
What's included in each branding template?
- Brand identity: your organization logo (pulled automatically from your profile) and an optional header image
- Colors: primary brand color, header/footer background color, and email background color
- Footer: an optional call to action link, up to two additional links, social media icons, and your organization's address
Branding by plan
| Plan | What you can do |
|---|---|
| Free | Branding is not available. Upgrade to Pro or Teams to customize your emails. |
| Pro | Edit your organization's default branding (one branding template, used everywhere). |
| Teams | Edit your organization's default branding, plus create separate branding for individual programs. |
On Teams, if a program has its own branding, emails related to that program's events or applications will use the program's branding instead of your organization's default. If a program doesn't have its own branding, it falls back to your organization branding automatically.
