Gmail SMTP Settings - B2C

We use the Loopcv email account (user'[email protected]) in order to avoid any complications because Google requires a specific permission for sending emails from your personal Gmail address. However, we have prepared a feature where you can use a custom smtp account, if you want.

First of all, you need to turn on the 2-Step Verification on your Gmail.

1. Login to your Gmail account.

2. By clicking on your profile icon on the top right, you can see the option to “Manage your Google Account”.

3. Navigate to your “Security” page.

4. Scroll down and access the “2-Step Verification” setting.

5. Click on the respective button to enable the 2-Step Verification.

6. Go back to the previous page, search for “App Password” on the search bar and click on the respective result.

7. Now you are ready to create your App Password for the SMTP settings. Type a name for your new app password (e.g. SMTP - Job Search) and click on “Create”.

8. You should now see a unique password on your screen. Save this password, as you will need it later for the SMTP settings.

When you complete the above requirements, follow these simple steps: 

1. Visit this link: https://app.loopcv.pro/profile/smtp 

2. Gmail SMTP server address: Host: smtp.gmail.com & Port: 587

3. Gmail SMTP username: Your full Gmail address (e.g. [email protected]).

4. Gmail SMTP password: App Password (the one you should have created as indicated above).

5. Secure connection: Off 

6. Click on the Save button on the down right corner.

Alternative Settings:

Port: 465

Secure Connection: On
