Do I need DMARC for ecommerce email?
Yes. Gmail and Yahoo expect bulk senders to authenticate with SPF, DKIM and DMARC, and a missing DMARC record makes it more likely your mail is filtered.
Start with a monitoring policy so nothing breaks, read the reports, then move toward enforcement once every legitimate sender passes.
DMARC also protects your brand from being spoofed in phishing emails.
In practice.
A store publishes DMARC in monitoring mode and reads the reports for a month. They show a forgotten invoicing tool sending as the domain. Once it is authenticated, the store moves the policy toward enforcement.
