Never miss out on important emails about account information and WPML updates. To make sure you get this information in your inbox, be sure to whitelist WPML’s email address.

Why Whitelisting WPML is Important

Without whitelisting WPML in your email client, important information we send to you has a big chance of ending in folders like Spam, Junk, or Promotions. This includes:

  • Purchase confirmations
  • Login information
  • Upcoming renewal reminders
  • Payment failures

To make sure you receive these emails you should whitelist our purchases@wpml.org email address.

We also share security notices, new release announcements, and blog updates from hello@wpml.org.

How to Whitelist WPML’s Email Addresses

In general, there are three main ways to whitelist an email address:

  • Add the email address to your contacts list
  • Create a filter to send emails from a specific sender to your inbox
  • Unmark emails as Spam or Junk if they already ended up in that folder

We explain how this works for main email providers:

Whitelisting Email Addresses Using Gmail

In the Browser

To add our email address to your contacts, open an email from us and click the Contacts icon in the right-hand side bar. Then, click the icon to add us to your list of contacts.

If our emails somehow make it to your spam folder, click the button to Report not spam. This helps Google learn that we belong in your inbox instead.

With Gmail, you can also go one step further and create a filter to make sure our emails never get marked as spam. Look for emails that have “purchases@wpml.org” in the From field. Click Create a filter, then choose Never send it to Spam.
