Show your logo in the inbox with BIMI

Publish a verified logo that Gmail and Apple Mail display next to your messages.

why this matters

A branded avatar in the inbox measurably lifts open rates and makes phishing that imitates you far more obvious.

1
Get DMARC to enforcement
BIMI requires p=quarantine or p=reject with full coverage. Do the DMARC enforcement guide first — nothing else here matters until that is done.
2
Prepare an SVG Tiny PS logo
Square, centred, with a solid background and no external references. Your designer exports SVG then trims it to the Tiny PS profile.
3
Buy a Verified Mark Certificate
A VMC from an authorised certificate authority proves you own the trademark. Budget a few hundred to a low four-figure sum a year and one to two weeks of verification.
4
Host both files and publish the record
Serve the SVG and the PEM certificate over HTTPS, then point the BIMI record at them.
