Custom branding in Console

Console is highly configurable and can be easily updated to support your own logos, colors, and brand identity.

Your Kevel account manager will partner with you to customize the look, feel, and core functionality of your Console Business Manager.

Colors

Select your color palette, including primary color, menu color, primary text color, secondary text color, and background.

Channel & campaign type appearance

As you choose which channels to expose to your advertisers, you can customize the groupings, icons, colors, names, and descriptions shown to the advertiser.

You can also customize the types of campaigns available, and can control channel and campaign type access by advertiser.

For example, a media owner may choose to make a subset of onsite campaign types available to all advertisers, while some advertisers may have special access to more high-value onsite inventory.

Custom navigation buttons

You may optionally add your own navigation shortcut for advertisers directly in the Console sidebar. These buttons can link to any internal or external destination, making it easy to surface tools, documentation, or support resources for advertisers and internal teams.

For example, a media owner could:

  • Link to product documentation or campaign guides for advertisers
  • Link out to custom dashboards or support systems for advertisers
  • Connect to helpdesks, chat tools, or BI platforms for partners

When adding a new button, you’ll define three main fields:

FieldDescriptionExample
Button NameThe short label that appears in the Console navigation. Keep it concise.Documentation
IconSelect an icon from Console’s built-in icon library.settings_icon
LinkThe URL that the button will open. This can be internal (within Console) or external (e.g., ReadMe, Intercom, or Looker).https://dev.kevel.com/docs/creating-a-campaign/#/

Each button can be toggled to visible or hidden. When set as visible, it appears for all users in your Console Business Manager.

Custom URLs and login page

With Console, media owners can offer their advertisers a custom-labeled self-service login experience and a custom subdomain.

You'll be able to choose the URL of your choice as a subdomain of ads-console.com.

To get started, contact your Kevel account manager.

Invitation emails

The emails Console sends can carry your brand, starting with the invitation your advertisers receive. Kevel builds an email template for your business manager and sets your subject line, then switches it on. To get started, contact your Kevel account manager.

By default, advertisers receive the Kevel Console invitation:

The default invitation email: the Kevel Console logo, the heading You're invited, a short message, an Accept invitation button and a Kevel footer.

With a branded template, the same email carries your logo, colors and wording. This example uses the demo brand FoodTrove:

An example branded invitation email in the FoodTrove brand: the FoodTrove logo, the heading You're invited, a message, a purple Accept invitation button, a fallback link and a footer.

The activation page the person lands on carries your branding as well. It uses the same logo, cover image and brand color as your custom login page:

The Activate your account page in the FoodTrove brand, with the username shown as an email address, two password fields and the Activate account button.

For every email Console sends, who receives it, and which parts you can brand, see Emails in Console.
