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.

Creating Category

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

Subscription category in segments

You can create unlimited categories. The corresponding purple label marks each segment assigned to the category.

A segment assigned to the subscription category cannot be deleted or renamed in the general list. Delete the corresponding subscription category in Settings → Subscription categories to delete the segment. Contacts included in the deleted segment will remain in the system.

Creating Category-Based Campaign

You can use subscription categories to control the frequency of campaigns depending on their subscriber’s interests. Subscription categories apply to all communication channels. Subscription categories are specified when the message is created.

  • In Messages → Messages, create a message or choose the existing one.
  • Open its general settings, click Select categories, and select categories applicable to the message. You can select several categories. Below is an example of choosing categories for email.

Select categories

When scheduling the campaign, you can select any other segments to send it. 

The system will automatically calculate the contacts following the rules:

  • The message is sent only to contacts from the selected segments who have subscribed to the corresponding subscription category.
  • If the message isn’t assigned to any category, it will be sent to all contacts from selected segments.

A campaign report will show the subscription categories applied to the message.
