Subscription Categories

Subscription categories allow companies to manage campaigns and send them to particular contact segments. You can create unlimited subscription categories, for example:

  • Newsletters;
  • Product categories;
  • Promo and sales;
  • Subscriptions to products of a particular brand.

Contacts will be included in categories based on their preferences and will receive only campaigns they are interested in.

Note! Subscription categories aren’t a default feature. You need to create them manually.

Create a Category

1. Go to your profile > Settings > Subscription categories and click New category.

5. Schedule the campaign, and the system will automatically calculate the contacts following the rules:

  • If the message is assigned with categories, but the contact isn’t subscribed to them, it won’t be sent to this contact.
  • If the message isn’t assigned with any category, it will be sent to all contacts from selected segments;
  • The message is sent only to contacts from the selected segments who have subscribed to the corresponding subscription category.

A campaign report will show the number of contacts who didn’t receive the campaign because they weren’t subscribed to selected categories.
