Welcome to {{productName}}

Hey {{firstName}},

Your account is set up. One step left: confirm this address, and your workspace is ready to use.

Get started [{{getStartedUrl}}]

Or paste this link into your browser:

{{getStartedUrl}}

If you did not sign up, you can ignore this message and nothing further happens.

The {{productName}} team

You are getting this because this address was used to create a {{productName}} account.

Shown with sample values. The HTML and plain-text tabs keep the placeholders.

About

When to send it

Send it as soon as someone creates an account. It greets them by first name, points at the single next step, and repeats the link as text in case the button does not work. The footer says why the email arrived.

Values

What each send fills in

Required values have to come with every send. The rest fall back to the default shown here.
