# Welcome message

**Element type:** Suggested

**Endpoints/models used:** [NewAccountRequestModel](https://developer.avalara.com/api-reference/avatax/rest/v2/models/NewAccountRequestModel/)

When building your integration, determine whether to send a welcome email to users when they create a new account. Avalara provides the following options:

-   `Normal`: Send a standard Avalara-specific welcome email.
-   `Suppressed`: Don't send an email.
-   `Custom`: Send a customized welcome email if your Avalara business development representative provides you with one for your customers.
