# Vercel Marketplace Integration

> Create and connect a Resend account directly from Vercel using the dashboard or the CLI.

The Resend integration on the [Vercel Marketplace](https://vercel.com/marketplace/resend) lets you provision a Resend account without leaving Vercel. Once installed, Vercel connects the account to your project so you can start sending email right away.

## What you get

* A Resend account created and linked to your Vercel account.
* A connection between that account and the Vercel project you selected.
* Access to the full [Resend dashboard](https://resend.com), where you can add domains, manage API keys, and view logs.

## Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have the following:

* A Vercel account with a project.
* A domain purchased in Vercel.

## Three surfaces

You can add Resend to a Vercel project from any of these surfaces:

* [**Vercel Dashboard**](#vercel-dashboard)
* [**Vercel CLI**](#vercel-cli)

### Vercel Dashboard

To install Resend from the Vercel Marketplace:

1. Log in to Vercel and go to the [Marketplace](https://vercel.com/resend/~/integrations/marketplace).
2. Search for "Resend" and click on the integration card.
3. Click on the "Install" button.
4. To create a new Resend account for your Vercel project, click on the "Create Account" option and **Continue**.
5. Click **Accept and Create** to continue the installation.

Vercel creates a new Resend account for your Vercel project, connects the domain to Resend, and provisions an API key.

1. Run `vercel integration add resend`.
2. Select your custom domain associated with your Vercel project (or purchase a domain from Vercel).
3. Select a plan (free or paid).
4. Click **Continue** and **Create** to complete the installation.
5. Select your Vercel project to connect the domain to Resend and click **Connect**.
6. Click **Complete onboarding** to view the domain in your new Resend account.
