Add TouchUpDirect Emails to your Safe Sender List

Add noreply@touchupdirect.com and help@touchupdirect.com to your safe sender list to prevent our transactional and customer support communications from ending up in your spam folder.

Occasionally, our emails get waylaid en route to your inbox. This can be due to a spam filter on your computer or with your mail hosting provider. First, try checking your junk/spam mail folders for any of our past emails. If nothing is present, contact your hosting provider or ISP and have them add noreply@touchupdirect.com and help@touchupdirect.com as a trusted sender.
