        Add dynamic and personalized content to your emails using personalization tags. With personalization tags, you can easily insert details such as the customer’s name, your store’s address, or a discount code directly into your email’s subject line, preview text, or body.

        In this article, you’ll learn how to add personalization tags to emails.

        How it works

        Personalization tags are predefined bits of code that you add to your emails. When your campaign is sent out, the personalization tags get replaced with real data. The data for personalization tags will be pulled from various sources, depending on the tag. This may include customer details, Shopify store information, any integrations you have, Yotpo Email settings, or other Yotpo apps connected to your store.

        To add a personal touch to your email, you can use the First name personalization tag, for example, in the email subject.

        Tip:

        By using personalization tags in your email templates, you ensure that content remains dynamic and automatically updated across all future campaigns. This means that any changes, like updating your store’s address, are instantly reflected in all your scheduled campaigns and templates without the need for manual revisions.

        Adding personalization tags to emails

        You can add personalization tags to the email’s subject line, preview text, and body.

        Adding personalization tags to the subject and preview fields

        To add a personalization tag to email subject or preview text:

        1. Start creating a campaign or open a draft to edit.

        2. In both the Email subject and Preview text fields, you can click the Personalization tag icon to search for or choose personalization tags.

        Adding personalization tags to the email body

        To add a personalization tag to the email body:

        1. Start creating a campaign or open a draft to edit.

        2. In the Email preview, click Edit to open the email editor.

        3. Select the Text block you want to edit.

        4. In the editor toolbar, open the Personalization tags drop-down, and search for, or select personalization tags.

        Testing personalization tags

        When you send yourself a test email, the personalization tags will be filled with sample data. Real data will only appear in emails that are sent to customers.

        Tip:

        You can also click the Preview button to see how your message will appear before sending it. Keep in mind that the data shown in the preview will be sample data only.
