# Emails Trustap keeps users and systems informed by sending notifications at key transaction milestones or actions in a transaction's life. These notifications come in the following two forms. - **Emails** that are sent to end users (buyers, sellers). - **Webhooks** that are sent to your system for automation (see [Webhooks Guide](/docs/concepts/webhooks)). Emails are sent to your users at key points to do the following. 1. Inform users of changes to the transaction. 2. Get a response from them to progress the transaction to the next state. * The content and request for action of each email is tailored to the recipient and status of the transaction. * All email notifications come from the following email address `noreply@support.trustap.com`. The following is a sample email a seller receives when they pass shipping details for a transaction.

Trustap does offer options for co-branded emails. Emails containing branding from both your company and Trustap help build user confidence. The following is an example co-branded email. Co-branded email including brand name in body Co-branding is available in two parts. 1. Your company logo and company name in the email heading. 2. Your company name in the email body. You can choose to add either or both options to your emails. To enable your co-branded email, contact your Trustap integration specialist with the following details. * Your preferred branding option (company name in body, company logo and name in heading, or both). * Your preferred company name as it should appear in the email. * A link to your company logo. We support Favicons (.ico), JPG, and PNG (preferred). ## Testing * For testing webhooks, refer to the [webhook test](/docs/concepts/webhooks#testing) guide. * For testing email notification, we recommend the following. 1.
