When enabled via the Email Settings page, new members will receive a welcome email when they first sign up 🎉

If you want to retroactively send a welcome email blast to all your existing members, please see our Email Campaign feature.

Ready to handoff more than specs? With Zeplin, you get a structured workspace to publish designs, where the entire team can come together to ship beautiful products.

Everything starts when a designer publishes finalized designs to Zeplin, so developers, copy writers, product managers, and more know exactly what to build. Adding Commit Messages helps clarify exactly what has changed between versions.

**Let's get you started!** Use your favorite design tool to publish your first design to Zeplin: 
- [Publishing from Figma](hyperlink.com)

    Hey Memberstack, is it possible to add the members name from their sign up form to make these emails more personal?

    John Leoniak that is not possible, but is something we'd like to support in the future.

    is it possible to send a welcome email when someone has been added to a plan, but not before? My use case: people sign-up, but there's a manual verification process before they are added to a plan. The welcome email would be sent upon approval.

    Hey Jonathan, it is possible, but you'll need to use Make or Zapier instead. You can use the event "plan added" to trigger sending an email.

    Ok thanks Duncan. I've gone a slightly different way:

    • Member status changed to Verified in Airtable, MemberStack plan ID gets added to the record (if then statement)
    • Make hears the record change in Airtable, fires mail from MailerSend
    • WhaleSync sees the MemberStack plan ID in Airtable, updates member record with plan ID
