Notification Settings

Quark Commerce supports multiple notification providers for sending emails and SMS messages to customers.

Managing Providers

Navigate to Settings → Notifications.

Provider Types

Type	Protocol	Use Cases
SMTP	Email	Order confirmations, password resets, marketing
Twilio	SMS + Email	Phone verification, order SMS, two-factor auth

SMTP Provider Fields

Field	Description
Name	Provider display name
SMTP Host	Mail server hostname
SMTP Port	Mail server port (587, 465, 25)
Username	SMTP authentication username
Password	SMTP authentication password
From Address	Sender email address
From Name	Sender display name
Use SSL	Enable TLS/SSL

Twilio Provider Fields

Field	Description
Name	Provider display name
Account SID	Twilio account SID
Auth Token	Twilio auth token
Verify Service SID	Twilio Verify service (for phone verification)
From Number	Twilio phone number (for direct SMS)

Testing

Each provider has a Test button:

• Auth Check — verifies credentials are valid
• Send Test — sends a test message to confirm delivery

Per-Store Assignment

Each store can be assigned specific providers:

1. Go to Settings → Stores → Edit Store
2. Select SMS Provider and Email Provider from dropdowns
3. Save

When sending notifications, the system:

1. Checks the store's assigned provider first
2. Falls back to priority-based selection if not set

Phone Verification

When Twilio's Verify Service SID is configured:

• Phone verification uses Twilio Verify API (recommended — Twilio manages code generation and delivery)
• Without it, the system generates codes locally and sends them via SMS

Notification Events

Notifications are triggered by various events:

• Password reset emails
• Order confirmation (when implemented via event consumers)
• Phone verification codes
• Custom notifications via the API
