# Account matching

Tomba for Salesforce links people to the companies you already have, using the company **domain**. It runs
inside Salesforce and uses **no Tomba credits**.

## How it works

- Every Account gets a **Tomba Domain** (`stripe.com`) from its Website, kept up to date automatically. For
  existing Accounts, run the **Index company domains** bulk job once (Tomba Bulk › Accounts).
- A Lead's domain comes from its Website, otherwise from its email. Webmail addresses (gmail.com, outlook.com…)
  are ignored.
- The Lead or Contact gets **Tomba Matched Account**. When several Accounts share the domain, the oldest one is
  chosen and **Tomba Match Ambiguous** is checked.

## Turn it on

In **Tomba Setup › Automation › Account matching**:

| Option                                                | Effect                                                        |
| ----------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Match Leads and Contacts to Accounts by company domain | New and changed records are matched when saved, and records enriched by Tomba are matched afterwards |
| Link Contacts without an Account                      | Sets the Contact's Account to the match (otherwise only Tomba Matched Account is filled) |

To match existing records, run **Match to Accounts** from the Tomba Bulk tab or a list view. The **Tomba Insights**
panel shows the match and offers **Link to account** on Contacts without an Account.
