Migrate to Sendfable
Moving ESPs is mostly a careful CSV export, a clean import, and re-checking authentication. Here is an honest path from common tools — no fake “one-click migrator” claims.
Import CSV opens the real importer. Sign in if you already have an account. New accounts start at Start free, then import from Contacts.
Migration checklist
- Export contacts. Download a CSV of people who asked to hear from you. Keep the old account until a test send looks right.
- Map CSV fields. Keep email, first name, and last name. Groups or tags can become SendFable tags when you import.
- Preserve unsubscribe and suppression lists. Export unsubscribed, complained, and hard-bounced addresses separately. Do not import them as active contacts.
- Import contacts. In SendFable, open Contacts and choose Import CSV. Map the columns, preview the rows, then confirm.
- Verify a sender. Confirm the From address people already recognize before the first campaign.
- Check SPF, DKIM, and DMARC. Authentication is on the domain. The deliverability page explains what those records do. SendFable does not guarantee the inbox.
- Start carefully with the imported audience. Mail a small, recent slice first. Watch bounces and complaints before you write to the whole list.
- Create and send the first campaign. Write one clear email, send a test to yourself, then send or schedule the real one.
