FAQ: Default Access Email & SMS/Text
What is the default guest email/text from Lynx:
Lynx offers a "default email and text" to communicate access information to the guests. Customers cannot customize the content displayed in this email/ text. However, customers can add their brand logo and colors to this email if they have purchased the white-label add-on.
Use default email/text from Lynx while you complete the messaging setup. Unless activated, all emails/texts are always disabled. You can request support@getlynx.co to activate the default email/ text.
Lynx will never send any communication to your guests unless you activate the setup. You can deactivate these emails/ texts once your custom messaging is set up. Default Access Email & SMS/ Text are free.

<Lock Name>: Access Code (To lock or unlock, enter the access code followed by the "check" key. Use the lever to open or close the door.)
