It's possible to make an email from Zapier look like an email that's come from Arlo with the same colours and layout as Arlo automated emails. This process can be done yourself but is quite technical, if you would like to use our Zapier Consultancy Service we'll be happy to work with you to create custom email layouts and styles.

- HTML - Use Arlo's automated email HTML to create an email that is styled the same as your Arlo order emails
- For customers with access to the Email Template Customisation feature use this guide - Customise your email template design (Product Lab customers only)
- Contact Arlo Support to use our Zapier Consultancy, we will create the Zap and email to match your Arlo emails and your own content
- Plain Text - Type in normal text and combine it with the Arlo order information to create a basic payment reminder email

Attachments can't be added to the Zap directly but need to be hosted somewhere and the link copied into the attachment field. You can use services like Google Drive, One Drive, Dropbox or your websites server to host these files.
