Email Notifications

Purpose and when to use

Divi Membership sends transactional emails for key events (registration, renewal, expiration, and trials). You can enable or disable each notification and customize subject lines and content using merge tags. Access these in Divi Engine → Divi Membership → Email Notifications. HTML is supported in templates; keep it simple for best deliverability.

Email Notifications

How settings are organized

The Email Notifications screen is split into three tabs:

  • Admin — Notification sent to you when a new member registers.
  • Subscription — Customer-facing emails for welcome, upcoming renewal, expired, and expired reminder.
  • Trials — Emails for trial lifecycle events (started, ending soon, converted, expired, grace period).

Use the tabs to jump to the group you want to configure.
