How it works

How to mail merge from Gmail, in four steps

No new inbox to learn and no new address to warm up. Fusomail works with the Gmail you already use, and keeps every step in plain sight.
Step 1

Connect your Gmail

Choose Connect Gmail and sign in with Google. Google shows you exactly what Fusomail asks for: permission to send email on your behalf, and nothing else.

  • Works with personal Gmail and Google Workspace
  • Send-only: Fusomail cannot read your inbox
  • Disconnect at any time, in Fusomail or in your Google account

Step 2

Import your list

Upload a CSV or Excel file from your spreadsheet, CRM or Google Sheets. Match the email and name columns; every other column is kept for personalising. Then verify the addresses, so fewer emails bounce.

  • Addresses that cannot work are flagged
  • The same address twice becomes one contact
  • People who unsubscribed before stay unsubscribed
  • Typos, throwaway and role addresses found by email verification (Starter and up)

  • tom@oldstudio.exampleInvalid· No mail server
Step 3

Write one email

Write the subject and body as you would to one person, and put fields such as {{first_name}} or {{company}} where the details change. Preview any contact to read exactly what they will get.

  • Fields work in the subject and the body, with fallbacks for empty values
  • Attach the same files to every email
  • A deliverability check scores the email before it goes (Starter and up)
  • Send a test to yourself first

Step 4

Send and follow along

Start the campaign. Fusomail sends each email through your Gmail, spaced out to stay within your account’s daily limit, and carries on the next day when a list is long.

  • Pause, resume or cancel at any time
  • Each person’s status: sent, clicked, unsubscribed or failed
  • Retries never send anyone two copies

Questions about getting started

How long does it take to set up?

Most people send their first test within a few minutes: connect Gmail, upload a file, write the email.

Do I need to install anything?

No. Fusomail runs in your web browser. There is no browser extension and nothing to install.

Can people tell the email was sent with a tool?

The email comes from your own address and reads as you wrote it. Campaign emails carry a short unsubscribe line at the end, as the law and Google expect for bulk email.

What if my list is longer than Gmail’s daily limit?

Fusomail sends as many as your account may send today and continues tomorrow, so the whole list is covered without breaking the limit.
