This guide walks you through adding the required DNS records in Wix to verify your domain with Flowforth. It applies if your domain’s DNS is managed by Wix — that is, your nameservers look something like ns1.wixdns.net and ns2.wixdns.net.
Before starting, make sure you’ve already added your domain in Flowforth. You’ll need the DNS record values shown on the domain settings page.
If your domain is registered somewhere else and connected to Wix by pointing (rather than by using Wix’s nameservers), your DNS records are managed with your domain host, not Wix. Add the Flowforth records there instead — see the guide for that provider.
Wix used to only allow MX records on your root domain, which meant the send MX record Flowforth needs couldn’t be added there. Wix now supports MX records on subdomains, so Wix-managed domains can be verified like any other.

​
Open DNS Settings in Wix

  1. Log in to Wix and go to your Domains page
  2. Click the Domain Actions icon (⋯) next to your domain
  3. Click Manage DNS records
The DNS records are grouped by type. Each group has its own + Add Record button.
After clicking Save on a record, Wix shows a pop-up. Click Save Changes in it to finish saving the record.

​
Add the MX Record

In the MX section, click + Add Record:
  1. Enter the name from Flowforth (e.g., send) in the Host Name field
  2. Copy the MX Value from Flowforth into the Value field
  3. Set the Priority to 10
  4. Leave TTL at its default
  5. Click Save, then click Save Changes in the pop-up
Make sure the Host Name is filled in with send. If you leave it blank, the record goes on your root domain, where it can change where your regular email (Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, etc.) is delivered. Don’t edit or remove your existing root-domain MX records.
Wix automatically appends your domain to the Host Name field. Enter only the subdomain portion — for example, type send instead of send.example.com.

​
Add the SPF Record (TXT)

In the TXT section, click + Add Record:
  1. Enter the name from Flowforth (e.g., send) in the Host Name field
  2. Copy the TXT Value from Flowforth into the Value field
  3. Leave TTL at its default
  4. Click Save, then click Save Changes in the pop-up

​
Add the DKIM Record (TXT)

In the TXT section, click + Add Record:
  1. Enter the DKIM name from Flowforth (e.g., resend._domainkey) in the Host Name field
  2. Copy the DKIM Value from Flowforth into the Value field
  3. Leave TTL at its default
  4. Click Save, then click Save Changes in the pop-up

​
Add the DMARC Record (TXT)

While not strictly required, adding a DMARC record is highly recommended. It improves deliverability and protects your domain’s reputation.
If your domain already has a DMARC record, you do not need to add another one. Look for an existing TXT record with the host name _dmarc in your Wix DNS records.
In the TXT section, click + Add Record:
  1. Enter the DMARC name from Flowforth (e.g., _dmarc) in the Host Name field
  2. Copy the DMARC Value from Flowforth into the Value field
  3. Leave TTL at its default
  4. Click Save, then click Save Changes in the pop-up

​
Add the Tracking Records (Optional)

If you enabled click tracking or open tracking when adding your domain in Flowforth, you’ll need to add these two additional records. You can also enable tracking later from the domain detail page in Flowforth — the records will appear in your DNS table when tracking is turned on.

​
CNAME Record (Tracking)

In the CNAME section, click + Add Record:
  1. Enter links in the Host Name field
  2. Enter links1.resend-dns.com in the Value field
  3. Leave TTL at its default
  4. Click Save, then click Save Changes in the pop-up

​
CAA Record (Tracking)

In the CAA section, click + Add Record:
  1. Leave the Host Name field blank so the record applies to your root domain
  2. Enter 0 issue "amazon.com" in the Value field
  3. Leave TTL at its default
  4. Click Save, then click Save Changes in the pop-up
If you don’t see a CAA section in your Wix DNS records, contact support@flowforth.co and we’ll help you finish setting up tracking.

​
Verify in Flowforth

Once all records are added in Wix, go back to your domain in Settings → Domains and click the “Records Added” button. Flowforth will check your DNS records and verify the setup in the background.
DNS changes can take anywhere from a few minutes to 48 hours to propagate. If verification doesn’t succeed right away, wait and try again later.

​
Troubleshooting

  • Verification failed: Double-check the records you added in Wix for copy/paste errors. Make sure you’re using only the subdomain portion in the Host Name field (e.g., send not send.example.com).
  • MX record landed on the root domain: If the MX record shows with an empty host name, delete it and add it again with send in the Host Name field.
  • Priority conflict: If priority 10 is already in use on another MX record, use a different value like 20 or 30.
  • Still not verifying after 72 hours: Contact support@flowforth.co and we’ll help you debug the issue.
Not ready to change your DNS? We can set you up with a sending address on a domain we own — something like yourchurch.churchemail.co — with replies going to your normal church email address. Contact support@flowforth.co to set it up.
