How to insert coupon codes in automation emails?

In this section, we get to know about how to add the coupon codes in email automation templates.

In each automation workflow, there is a coupon block designed to generate dynamic coupons.

A dynamic coupon is a unique, automatically generated coupon code in the coupon block that is created within an automation workflow.

These dynamic coupons can be seamlessly included in your automated emails to provide personalized offers to customers.

For example, in the Abandoned Cart Recovery workflow, we configure the coupon block to generate and send dynamic coupons to the customers via automated email.

Workflow coupon settings

1. Click on the ‘Coupon’ block

2. Select the Coupon type

3. Enter the coupon value and set up expiry (Optional: You can enter a minimum order value if you would like to set up a minimum order value required for using the coupon)

4. Save.

Now, you have successfully configured the coupon block.
