In order to provide our customers with a quick method of transferring large files, we have established the following FTP site for your convenience. You may connect via the following 3 methods. If you require stricter security for file transfer, please contact use to utilize our Secure FTP (SFTP) site.

Connect via the web at:   http://www.bgmailing.com/general/files/

  • From there you will log in by entering the username and password we assigned you (check with your sales rep. if you do not have this information). The Java applet may request security permission, please say yes.
  • Once you are logged in, on the left side you will see your local drive, you may browse to where your file that you want to upload is stored. Click on the file, then click on the right arrow
  • If it was transferred you will now see the file in the right pane.

Using your own FTP client:  Server address: ftp.bgmailing.com

  • Enter the user name and password we have provided you.

Using Internet Explorer/Windows Explorer:

  • If you would prefer, you may also connect to the FTP site by entering this address in your address bar (you may then drag and drop the file): ftp.bgmailing.com (NOTE: Internet Explorer 7 will not upload properly, you can follow their directions that appear or open the site directly in Windows Explorer, which is our recommended course for IE7 and below.)

After transfer:

  • Regardless of which method you choose, after successfully transmitting your file, please contact your sales rep and inform them that you FTP'ed the file, a folder name (if applicable), file name, and record count.
