# Admin email notifications

Admin email notifications help store owners and staff stay informed about auction activity, such as new bids and auction winners.

### ✅ What Events Trigger Admin Emails?

You can choose to notify admins when:

*  A new bid is placed
*  A customer wins an auction

Each event can be turned on or off independently.

2. Under the **Admin tab**, enter the email addresses where you want to receive notifications.

### 📝 Customize  Email Content

You can personalize the email content using dynamic variables the app provides. These variables will automatically populate with real data when the email is sent.

<table><thead><tr><th width="211.5">Variable</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><code>{shop_name}</code></td><td>Your store’s name</td></tr><tr><td><code>{time_send}</code></td><td>Time range for the bid summary</td></tr><tr><td><code>{list_bid}</code></td><td>List of bids placed during the time period</td></tr></tbody></table>

* Copy the variables
* Paste in email body&#x20;
* Click **Save** after making changes
