Mask the Graphicmail.co.uk URL with your own
As an Agency Reseller you can mask the www.graphicmail.co.uk URL, so that your client sees only
your website address.
To do this you (or your DNS administrator) needs to create a sub-domain on your existing domain
(e.g. http://newsletters.yourdomain.com). To do this you need to create a CNAME record in the DNS
entry for your domain.
Once you have done that point this CNAME record to resellers.graphicmail.co.uk
Setting up a CNAME
Step 1: Finding your DNS management area
Your registrar's documentation should explain how to manage and modify DNS records including the
CNAME record, or you may be able to get this information by sending them an email. If you're not
sure, look for something similar to:
• Advanced DNS
• Custom DNS
• DNS Management
• Host Management
Step 2: Finding the CNAME records
Some registrars have different areas for different types of DNS records so that each can be modified
separately. In this case, look for the area called something like:
• CNAME Records
• Aliases
• Host Aliases
Other registrars have a single area for managing DNS records. Here, you will typically need to select
the type of record from a drop-down menu and you will want to make sure to select CNAME as the
type.
Step 3: Setting up your CNAME record for domain mapping
There will usually be two fields where you can enter information for the CNAME record.
These may be called:
• Alias and Points to or Other Host
• Host Name and URL
• Name and Value
You should enter resellers for the first field (Alias, Host Name, Name, etc). Also be alert for any
special instructions that your registrar may have for this field.
For the second field (Points to, Other Host, URL, Value, etc) enter our domain in the form:
resellers.graphicmail.co.uk
Do not include http:// at the beginning or any folder name at the end.
Back To Top
Some registrars may require you to enter the domain in a certain way, such as adding a dot at the
end, so look carefully for any instructions on the page about doing this. After you have entered the
information for your CNAME record save your changes.
Step 4: Configure the settings in GraphicMail
When you have completed the above process, please inform us by emailing [email protected] so
we can complete the masking by update the GraphicMail web server.
Setting up login pages
When you have completed masking the GraphicMail URL with your CNAME the URL will now point
to this generic login page:
Your logo will be presented above the Client login where it states “Your Logo Here”.
Your clients can now login directly to their own account using their own login username and
password. If your client forgets their password then they can click on the link “Forgot Password?”
and it will then allow them to enter their username and click Login, their password will then be sent
to them.
This form is shown below:

Customized login page
You also have the option to design your own custom login page or even place the login into one of
your existing web pages or on your home page. To do that you only need to place the Java Script
code below into your website. You can then alter the code to customize it to your look and feel.
HTML login form code
When copying and pasting this code into the appropriate part of the HTML code you’re using for
your sub-account login page, replace the generic newsletters.yourdomain.com with the masking
URL you set up.
<script>
function CheckFields(){
var Error = false
if(!document.inputForm.Email1.value>""){
alert("You have to enter 1 email address.")
document.inputForm.Email1.focus()
Error = true
return false
}
if(!Error){
document.inputForm.Mode.value='Send'
document.inputForm.submit()
}
}
</script>

Billing
Within the billing section you can enable the payment gateway so your clients can pay for their own
campaigns.
By default, you will pre-pay for the campaign sends and other account usage of your clients. When
the client has used all their sends they must contact you again, so you can allocate more campaign
sends to their account.
There are alternative different billing methods you can enable to make reselling to your client’s
easier.
Quick Reference Guide


To allow a client to pay directly or on a recurring basis you can enable a payment gateway.
Depending on the payment gateway you have enabled you can offer your clients both
monthly and 'pay per campaign' accounts.
How to enable a payment gateway:
Click “Clients” (tab at the top) >> Settings >> then select Billing, you can then select “enable
payment gateway” at the top of your page. Once turned on you will then have the following
gateway options:
Select the payment gateway you would like to use by using the slider to turn it “On”.
There are three different payment gateways available:
1. Our gateway which uses SecureTrading to process Visa and MasterCard transactions from your
client. Each month we will credit amounts received from your clients to your PayPal account.
With our payment gateway, you will be able to set your mark-up and resell all the plans we
offer: pre-pay, monthly send plans and unlimited plans. We email your clients an invoice each
time they make a purchase, your client will have access to these invoice from their account. All
invoices generated for your client will be non-branded (no mention of GraphicMail). They only
include a reminder for your client that interinbox.com will show up on their credit card.
Back To Top
2. Your Gateway lets you integrate your own gateway for collecting payments. Integrating your
gateway requires using our API for allocating updating your client accounts and allocating send
credits to them. With your gateway, you’ve got the most flexibility. But you’ll need to do a lot of
work to set this up and you’ll need programming skills or have a programmer who can do it for
you. To learn more and see the API documentation click here.
By default, our payment gateway will be selected with a commission of 20%. If you select, your own
or our gateway, you can then set the mark-up and the price that your clients will pay for the plans. If
you selected the Reseller Assistant gateway the plans are set-up within the Reseller Assistant. When
you've finished adjusting the mark-up for pricing click save.
Do I have to give the client account access if I want them to pay?
No. If you don't want to provide any level of account access to the client, you can create an account
for them and manage all sends from that account.
How do I set-up an account?
Go to the Create account menu and select type of account that you want to create for that account.
What if I don’t know what plan, my client wants and only want to give them access?
If you don’t know what account they want you can set them up as pre-pay initially and the client can
then sign-up for the account they want when they are ready.
Within the billing section you can select the commission you would like to have from the send
credits that are purchased. You can use the drop down menu to select what percentage you would
like to make, once you have done that simply click “save”.
Back To Top
Once you have chosen the commission you would like to make, you can then view the cost for send
credits which include the price you pay, the price you sell them to your clients and the money you
make.
As you can see from the screenshot below you can toggle between the monthly plans you can offer:
You can choose “Contact Plans” which is based on the amount of contacts in the account rather
than the amount of send credits purchased. While on the Contact plans your clients will be able to
send to their full contact list up to once a day.
Please note: While on the Contact Plans, your clients will not be able to remove active email
addresses however they can remove any hard bounced or unsubscribed email addresses.

Header/Footer Settings
You can alter the settings used for your header and footer by using the drop down menus. As you
can see from the screenshot below, you can alter the language, alignment and font.
You can also alter the options that are displayed in your header such as enable social icons or enable
vcard. Another benefit of displaying the header is that it displays a “click here to view it in your
browser” link for all of the emails you send out. This means your recipients always have an option to
view the email in their browser. Also when using that link they will see the “Browser Widget” if you
have it enabled.
You can also alter the footer settings for your account, within this section you can choose what you
would like to be displayed in the footer ranging from forward to a friend to social media links. As a
reseller you have the option to “create a custom footer” which means you can add your own
“powered by logo” rather than a standard GraphicMail one and choose the “powered by URL”.
Back To Top
You can also preview the footer to make sure it displays exactly how you would like. If you change
the settings in your footer then you can use the “refresh preview” button to see those changes,
alternatively if you are happy with the footer settings you can click on “save”.
Back To Top
Account
As you can see from the screenshot below, within this section you can change the details displayed
within your main Reseller account. Once you have amended your account details just click on the
“update” button to continue.
Back To Top
Advanced
Within this section you have access to all of the advanced settings for your main Reseller account.
You can enable API access using the slider, however if you use this then you will need to enter the IP
address you will be using and contact GraphicMail support to add an API password. You can contact
us by sending an email to [email protected] or contact us via the Live Chat.
Once they have been set you will be ready to use the API, you can view the API documentation by
clicking here.
You can also contact support to change your download email address which will be used when you
export any data from your account. If you would like to create your own dataset to store your
subscribers data in then you will need to select “Multiple” in the Address Book Settings.
You can also use this Authentication section to create SPF and DKIM records:
