ProBIMI: Elevate Email Trust & Recognition
Display your verified brand logo directly in customer inboxes. ProBIMI makes implementing the BIMI standard seamless, boosting engagement and security.
What is BIMI?
Brand Indicators for Message Identification (BIMI) is a powerful email standard allowing your trademarked logo to appear next to your messages in supported inboxes (like Gmail & Apple Mail). It acts as a visual verification layer built upon DMARC authentication.
“Think of BIMI as the verified checkmark and profile picture for your brand, right in your customer’s inbox.”
Why BIMI is Crucial in Today's Email Landscape
With billions of phishing emails sent daily, brand impersonation is a severe threat. BIMI provides a critical layer of visual trust, setting your legitimate emails apart and protecting your brand.
Boost Engagement
Recipients are up to 10% more likely to open emails displaying a familiar, verified logo.
Enhance Trust
Visually reassure customers that emails are legitimate and directly from your brand, reducing suspicion and phishing risk.
Combat Phishing
Protect your brand reputation by making it harder for cybercriminals to effectively impersonate you with spoofed emails.
Improve Deliverability
Strong authentication signals (DMARC enforcement + BIMI) can positively impact inbox placement.
Key Requirements for Successful BIMI Implementation
DMARC Enforcement
Domain must have a DMARC policy of p=reject or p=quarantine with pct=100.
SPF Alignment
Sender Policy Framework must be correctly configured and aligned.
DKIM Alignment
DomainKeys Identified Mail signatures must be valid and aligned.
Verified Mark Certificate (VMC)
A digital certificate proving ownership of the trademarked logo (required by Gmail, recommended for others).
SVG Tiny PS Logo
Logo must be in a specific SVG format, meeting strict specifications.
A strict DMARC policy (p=reject or p=quarantine at 100%) is a non-negotiable prerequisite for BIMI. It proves you've secured your domain against spoofing, a critical step before mailbox providers will display your logo.
