# Customize Branding

AddEvent has a ton of options for adding your branding to your public event and calendar pages. Account-wide branding settings, like your custom domain, sender identity, and color palette, live in the Branding tab. Logo, font, background color, and preview images are customized per design in the Designs section.

# Remove AddEvent Branding

AddEvent branding appears on event and calendar landing pages, embeddable events, embeddable calendars, embeddable events lists, on the Add to Calendar button/links, in events on end-users' calendars, and in RSVP confirmation, reminder, and update emails.

To remove AddEvent branding, go to the <Anchor target="_blank" href="https://dashboard.addevent.com/account/branding">branding page</Anchor> of your account, and toggle the AddEvent branding toggle to the `Off` position.

# Landing Page Domains - Use a Custom Domain

By default, public links to events and calendars are hosted on `addevent.com`. For example:

1. Event landing page link: <Anchor target="_blank" href="https://www.addevent.com/event/vA8984410"><https://www.addevent.com/event/vA8984410></Anchor>
2. Calendar landing page link: <Anchor target="_blank" href="https://www.addevent.com/calendar/ih348885"><https://www.addevent.com/calendar/ih348885></Anchor>

You can host your events and calendars on your own domain so they are stripped of AddEvent branding. For example, if your company website was hosted at `www.yourcompany.com`, you can host your events and calendars at `events.yourcompany.com`

### Setting up your custom domain

1. Click the blue circle in the bottom-left corner of the Dashboard.

2. Select the <Anchor target="_blank" href="https://dashboard.addevent.com/account/billing">**Account and settings**</Anchor>**&#x20;**&#x6F;ption.

3. Select the <Anchor target="_blank" href="https://dashboard.addevent.com/account/branding">**Branding**</Anchor> tab.&#x20;

   <Image src="https://files.readme.io/04ace532012c30ab9aee9493005ee23838acc564266484eaf2ec1232b9c1fcdd-CleanShot_2026-07-21_at_17.26.142x.png" align="center" width="500px" border={true} />

4. Under the **Landing page domains&#x20;**&#x73;ection, click the **Add a custom domain&#x20;**&#x62;utton.

   <Image src="https://files.readme.io/e041af37b6b0f060d61b0cfb0babef5bc4d69f71f228ba94fa3c9328bc1d63b1-CleanShot_2026-07-21_at_17.47.202x.png" align="center" width="500px" border={true} />

5. Enter the domain you own.

6. Choose the subdomain you'd like to use (e.g., events, e, or calendar). This subdomain will be used for both your calendar landing pages and event landing pages.

7. Click the **Submit&#x20;**&#x62;utton.

   <Image src="https://files.readme.io/896a748f3b5bc77fd5a1c3bed738b3ceb2c617d698e07b8568d52f56466128c5-CleanShot_2026-07-21_at_17.49.10.gif" align="center" border={true} />

### What happens after you submit

Submitting the form doesn't set the domain up automatically. When you submit, your request is sent to our team so an engineer can configure it on our end. Here's what to expect:

* You'll get a confirmation email letting you know we've received your request and are working on it.

* Your domain will show a `Pending` badge in the Branding tab while setup is in progress.

  <Image src="https://files.readme.io/32b8b438576880dd30afca89d0b35b6b28b116b4985e0559df01163e03645396-CleanShot_2026-07-21_at_17.50.582x.png" align="center" width="500px" border={true} />

* Once it's live, the badge will change to `Verified`, and your custom domain will automatically appear on your event and calendar landing pages.

This process typically takes about 24 hours. If you ever need to make any changes to your custom domain, reach out to the support team and we'll assist.

Navigate to the <Anchor target="_blank" href="https://dashboard.addevent.com/account/branding">Branding tab of your account settings</Anchor> to set up your custom domain.

### Restrictions

1. You must own the domain you want to use to host your events and calendars
2. The path part of the public link to the event or calendar (i.e. `.../event/{{event_unique_key}}` or `.../calendar/{{calendar_unique_key}}` can't be changed
3. You must use a subdomain that is not being used for any other purpose. If your company website is hosted at `www.yourcompany.com`, you can't also host your events and calendars at `www.yourcompany.com/...`

# Customize RSVP Email Sender

By default, RSVP confirmation, reminder, and update emails are sent with a sender name of `AddEvent.com`, and a sender email address of `events@addevent.com`. Both the sender name and email address can be updated so your users recognize that your company is sending the emails they receive.

### Updating sender name

To update the sender name for your RSVP emails, follow the steps below:

1. Click the blue circle in the bottom-left corner of the Dashboard.

2. Select the <Anchor target="_blank" href="https://dashboard.addevent.com/account/billing">**Account and settings**</Anchor>**&#x20;**&#x6F;ption.

3. Select the <Anchor target="_blank" href="https://dashboard.addevent.com/account/branding">**Branding**</Anchor> tab.&#x20;

   <Image src="https://files.readme.io/1693591e138741230b67dfb312b52a3e42e19d432c19ac611d2d780e840a8d82-image.png" align="center" width="500px" border={true} />

5. Follow steps 1-4 and click the **Verify domain** button.

<br />

### Updating sender email address

Updating the sender email address requires verifying that you own the domain you wish to use with the service that we use to send emails on your behalf (Mandrill). If you would like to use a different sender email address, please follow the steps outlined in this <Anchor target="_blank" href="doc:update-rsvp-email-sender-name-and-email-address">help doc</Anchor> or follow the steps as shared in the app under <Anchor target="_blank" href="https://dashboard.addevent.com/account/settings">Settings</Anchor>.

Until you set up a custom sender domain, your emails will continue to send from the default AddEvent sender shown in the Branding tab.

# Add "Shared by *Your Company*" to All Calendar Invites

Adding a custom snippet to the bottom of calendar invites is a great way to promote your brand and remind users who shared the event with them. This works across all sharing methods, e.g., for event-adds for single events via the add to calendar button and subscription calendars.

We generally recommend using a short text snippet such as:

```

---
Shared by Your Company
```

or

```

---
Shared by yourcompany.com
```

  If you'd like to add a custom text snippet to all events that are added to end-users' calendars, please reach out to [support@addevent.com](mailto:support@addevent.com).
