Free Email Footer Generator for CAN-SPAM Compliance

Every commercial email needs a few things in its footer: who sent it, a valid physical postal address and a clear way to unsubscribe. Fill in the fields to get a footer you can paste into your newsletter. The result is checked automatically with our footer compliance checker.

Where are your recipients?

Everything stays in your browser. Nothing is sent or stored.

What the footer includes

  • Sender identification: your business name.
  • A valid physical postal address: a street address, a P.O. box, or a private mailbox registered with a commercial mail receiving agency.
  • A clear and conspicuous way to opt out that keeps working for at least 30 days after you send.
  • An optional advertisement notice, required when you email people who haven't given you affirmative consent.

Before you use it

If you use your email tool's merge tag for the unsubscribe link, send yourself a test to confirm it turns into a real link. Remember to honor opt-outs within 10 business days.

Add the footer automatically

Newsletter Ready adds the sender, address, unsubscribe link and contact to every issue, with one-click unsubscribe that takes effect immediately. Nothing is sent until the required details are filled in.
