# Use a Dedicated Sending IP Address

A dedicated sending IP address gives you full control of your email sending, so you’re fully responsible for the reputation of your own IP address.

We recommend a dedicated IP if you send over 100,000 emails per month. If you send over 250,000 emails per month, a dedicated IP is required. Shared IP addresses are best for lower-volume or inconsistent senders.

A dedicated sending IP offers some benefits for high-volume senders.

- A dedicated IP address gives you more control over your sending reputation. On a shared IP address, you’re affected by the sending practices of everyone on the address.
- In industries with heightened security, like banking and defense, a dedicated sending IP address is more likely to be allowlisted than a shared address. When your sending IP address is allowlisted, your emails are more likely to stay out of the spam folder.
