Notifications keep you informed about events happening in your impact.com account. Learn how to configure your impact.com notifications and customize their frequency.

#### Types of notifications

impact.com will send you notifications via email and in-app for the following events by default:

* Administrative events, like when new users are invited or join.
* Finance events, like when your payouts clear.
* Brand events, like when actions occur, contracts are updated, and more.
* Technical events, like when your FTP or API credentials are requested or changed.
* Compliance events, when you bid on unauthorized branded keywords or trademarks.
* Promo code monitoring, like when you have advertised an expired or restricted promo code.
* Task events, like when a brand assigns you a new task.
* Message events, like when you receive a message from a brand.
* Product catalog events, like when a brand whose product catalog you've subscribed to makes an update.

#### Configure your notifications

You can customize your notification settings to receive them on a per-event basis; via daily, weekly, or monthly email digests; on your mobile device via SMS; or even not at all.
