Contacts & segments

Manage your list the way you think about it.

Every contact has a full profile — purchase history, campaign engagement, opt-in status, tags, and loyalty balance. Segments are dynamic, rebuilt as data changes.

  • Named segments by purchase history, tags, or engagement
  • Email and SMS opt-in status tracked separately
  • Contact-level view of every campaign and order
  • Import and export contacts as CSV
Segments — example
Recent buyers142 contacts
Email subscribers890 contacts
Loyalty members67 contacts

Email & SMS

Send campaigns that track what matters.

Design email campaigns from templates or from scratch. Send SMS to opted-in contacts. Open rates, click rates, and unsubscribes feed back into the contact record automatically.

  • Open and click tracking per campaign
  • TCPA opt-out handling for SMS
  • Quiet hours — messages held, not lost
  • Reusable templates per channel

Automations

Triggered sequences that run without you.

Set up email or SMS sequences that fire on their own — when someone signs up or submits a form, when a tag is added, on a birthday or signup anniversary, when a customer goes quiet, or when a cart is left behind at checkout. Each step can be a different channel.

  • Starts on: signup, form submission, tag added, birthday, signup anniversary, going quiet, or an abandoned cart
  • Multi-step sequences with delays
  • Email and SMS steps in one automation
  • Cart follow-ups quote the cart itself, and stop if the order arrives mid-sequence
  • Pause or adjust without losing subscribers in-flow
Automation — example
Trigger: new signup
Wait 1 day → Email: welcome
Wait 3 days → SMS: check-in

Promotions hub

Coupons, giveaways, prize wheels, and loyalty — one hub.

Coupons & discounts, prize wheels, giveaways, loyalty & rewards, and special offers all live inside one Promotions page, with a guided builder that asks what you're trying to do and drops you into the right tool. Any coupon, automatic discount, or giveaway can be limited to a specific Customer Group — enforced at entry or checkout, not just labeled — while everything defaults to open to keep existing promotions working unchanged.

  • One Promotions page for coupons, prize wheels, giveaways, and loyalty
  • Guided "what are you trying to do?" builder picks the right tool
  • Optional Customer Group targeting on coupons, auto-discounts, and giveaway entry
  • Referral giveaways with configurable draw weights and QR codes linked to forms or campaigns
Loyalty — example
