What is Email Sharing?
Email Sharing is one of the many Sharing options you can provide for your event in the Fiesta Software to allow your guests to send their captures to themselves from an in-person event, Virtual event, or from a Sharing Station.
Email Shares are sent from a generic email address (email@boothmailer.com) by default. However, this can be customized and changed to your own business email address by using the Custom Sending Address feature for a completely customized experience.
Note: Custom Sending Address requires a custom domain name, access to your domain's DNS settings, and a Fiesta Pro subscription

When To Use Email Sharing
The benefits of Email Sharing over other sharing options include a greater amount of branding and customization, as well as the ability to collect the email addresses entered by guests.

Email Sharing Customizations
Email Sharing has a wide range of customizations to fully personalize and brand the experience.
These customizations include:
- Sender’s Name: The name that appears in the guests’ inbox that shows who the email is from. Most booth owners put their company’s name here.
- Subject Line: This is whatever you would like to have appear in the subject line of the received email. For example, "Your captures look great. Check them out!"
- Reply-to Address: The Reply-to address is the email address which will receive replies if guests reply to the Email Share email. This gives your guests an option to get in direct contact with you, and is a great way for interested guests to reach out to you for booking their own upcoming events.
- Messaging: This is where you would adjust the message of the email - both the headline and the body. As you make changes, you can see how your messaging appears to guests in the email preview on the right.
What To Know
Domain Quick Fill
When guests are inputting their email information, the most commonly used email domains will be available to select above the keyboard. When typing in the field, any selected email domain will populate after the cursor.
If a guest has already entered an email domain, the selected domain will replace what is entered, adjusting anything entered after the @ symbol. If the domain is selected before a guest has finished, the cursor will be placed before the @ symbol to prevent any frustration or confusion!
