Gravity SMTP – Our WordPress Email Sending Plugin

Have you installed Gravity SMTP, our new WordPress email sending plugin, yet?

If you have an active Gravity Forms Elite license, you can download Gravity SMTP for free.

Doing so gives you the ability to integrate your site with a range of trusted email sending services so that emails generated by WordPress, Gravity Forms, and any other plugins you’ve installed are sent more reliably.

The Gravity SMTP Setup Wizard makes it quick and easy to integrate with Brevo, Google, Mailgun, SendGrid, and more.

For services not supported by the wizard, you can use the custom SMTP feature to set up the integration.

If you’re already using WP Mail SMTP to handle sending your WordPress emails, you can quickly migrate to Gravity SMTP through the user-friendly plugin interface.

For more information on the plugin, read our Ultimate Guide to Gravity SMTP and check out the documentation.
