Goals and Outcomes
The Malomo and Yotpo integration allows merchants to send personalized and targeted emails or SMS messages based on the shipping events and status of orders tracked by Malomo. This integration will allow Malomo to send tracking information back to Yotpo, so you can incorporate shipping data into automated flows in near real-time.
In this article, you will learn how to connect Malomo and Yotpo and how to set up email and SMS flows for Malomo events.
Malomo Integration Overview
Malomo is a branded order tracking & analytics platform that helps connect users. Malomo proactively monitors every shipment you send and can detect dozens of different post-purchase events. Use those events to trigger email and SMS messages to your customers, or alert your Customer experience team of critical issues.
Send transactional messages directly from your marketing platforms so you can easily control the design and content. Transactional messages also see a 3x higher open and click-through rate. Use them to re-market and turn delivery from a cost center into a powerful retention engine.
Connecting Malomo with Yotpo SMS & Email
To connect Malomo with Yotpo:
In your Yotpo SMS & Email main menu, go to Integrations.
Search for Malomo in the navigation bar and click Connect.
Complete the prompts of the install flow. Once complete, you’ll see the integration is successfully installed within your Yotpo account.
You are all set to use the integration and set up your flows.
Note:
You will need to create a Full Access Private API key in Malomo to complete the integration. See Malomo’s instructions on generating API keys.
Setting up SMS & Email flows
To make the most out of the integration, we recommend setting up flows for the following statuses as the main shipping emails:
Pre Transit
In Transit
Out for Delivery
Delivered
And then, these as add-ons for shipping issues:

To set up a flow:
In your Yotpo SMS & Email main menu, go to Flows and click Create Flow from Scratch.
Click Choose Trigger and search for Malomo.
Select the relevant flow trigger based on the event you are looking for.
Choose SMS/MMS Message or Email as an action. This means an SMS/MMS message or email (depending on what you choose) will be sent as an outcome once the Trigger, i.e., shipment delivered, is updated to Shipment Delivered in Malomo.
When configuring the text of your SMS or Email, select Personalization tags below the message box to open the list of available properties sent to Yotpo via Malomo.
Create the message with the help of personalization tags. In place of these personalization tags customer, order, and tracking data will be auto-populated with the relevant information.
