FAQ

Questions, answered.

What is a Welcome Email and when does it send?

It's an automated email Banana sends to anyone who exchanges contact details with you (via Lead Exchange, a card tap that ends in a contact, or a Wallet save). It fires within seconds of the encounter, while you're still in the conversation — so the prospect already has a personal note from you by the time they look at their inbox.

Does it send from my own email address?

Yes — once you verify your sending domain in Banana, welcome emails go out from your address (e.g. you@yourcompany.com), land in the primary inbox (not promotions), and replies come back to you directly. Without a verified domain Banana falls back to a deliverable shared sender so your emails still reach the inbox.

Can I personalize the email per recipient?

Yes — use variables like {{first_name}}, {{company}}, {{event}} and {{your_name}} to make every email feel handwritten. Banana fills them in from the captured contact and the card that was tapped. AI Brain can even draft the first version in your tone of voice.

Can I have different welcome emails for different cards or events?

Yes — each card carries its own welcome email. A sales card might send a pitch + booking link, a conference card might send a 'great meeting you at [event]' note, and a partnership card might send a brief intro deck — all from the same Banana account.

What can I include in the welcome email?

Rich text, your logo, images, a vCard download, a Wallet pass install button, a 'Book a meeting' button, links to case studies or product pages, an unsubscribe footer, and a tracked CTA so you see who clicks. Keep it short — 3 sentences and one CTA tends to outperform anything longer.

Can I disable it for specific cards or temporarily?

Yes — toggle Welcome Emails on/off per card in seconds. Turn them off when you're sharing your card internally, then back on for the next event.

Welcome every new connection automatically — and start the relationship right.
