I have great difficulties managing the Brand appearance once chat goes to email, due to the fact that I can only sign up with one email adress. 

 

When I turn off using my own email Intercom will still show my workspace name in the generated email

 

Even if it says "Viktor from Brand 1" or "Viktor from Brand 2" The email adress is still limited to one domain or Intercoms own.

 

I cant be the only one working with multibrand setup. How do I grow if I cant customise my brands.

 

Any advice / tips /workarounds?

 

Did not get lucky in Customer Support (BTW I have the possibility to edit different brand styles)

I myself now found a cheapfix, so if anyone else is having these issues you can get in touch with me.

 

Not a permanent solution, but a solution that for now is "good enough"

Hi Viktor! I just switched from Zendesk to Intercom for the multi-brand feature and was very surprised to learn that it doesn't cover emails. I'm very interested in your cheapfix.

I am curious too.  Intercom seems to be built for a single product.  Doesn’t really take multi-brand into consideration when launching new features

Hey ​@User49, 

Since you posted this, a few things may have changed, so worth a fresh look. 💡

Multi-brand email doesn't have to be limited to one address or domain. You can connect a separate custom email address to each brand (different domains or addresses), and each brand can reply under its own name and address, not just your workspace default.

Two settings make this work:
1. Settings > Channels > Email > Domains & addresses: add and verify a custom address per brand.
2. Settings > Channels > Email > Customization: set Reply address to Inbound Address, so replies use the branded address a customer originally contacted, instead of one workspace-wide default.

If you're using Fin AI Agent over email, each brand also gets its own Fin email address under Settings > Workspace > Brands.

Here’s an article outlining the Multibrand for Email setup: https://www.intercom.com/help/en/articles/9744860-configure-your-email-channel-to-support-multiple-brands.
