Info

The user can personalize their messages using Mail Marge tags.

The content of the message, be it Email or SMS, can be customized by inserting recipient-specific details such as name, location, or other personalized information.

This can be done by

  • Clicking on the drop-down menu with the placeholder Personlize with their details.

  • Select the tags from the drop-down menu.

Note: The details of the contact must be present in order to use the particular tag.
Eg: If mobile number field is present in the contact form but it has not been entered for a particular contact then the Mail Merge tag _Mobile_no_will not display the number for that contact.
