Newsletter Dynamic Fields

You can add multiple dynamic fields to your newsletters to customize them. All the available fields are listed and detailed below:

{unsubscribe}

Adds link that customers can click on to unsubscribe and stop receiving your newsletter.

Giving your customers the option to 'unsubscribe' from your newsletter is a legal requirement in multiple countries including the United Kingdom and the United Sates.

In order for the link to work you need to add the token in the newsletter's code using the snippet below.

<a href="{unsubscribe}">Unsubscribe</a>

{fullname}

Newsletter subcriber's full name.

This information is pulled from the subscriber record, not the customer's account.

For example, if a customer's name was originally John Doe and you change it to John Dowe, the {fullname} dynamic field will still use John Doe until you manually change their full name via their corresponding subscriber record.

{firstname}

Newsletter subscriber's first name.

This information is pulled from the subscriber record, not the customer's account.

For example, if a customer's first name was originally John and you change it to Jon, the {firstname} dynamic field will still use John until you manually change the first name via their corresponding subscriber record.

{lastname}

Newsletter subscriber's last name.

This information is pulled from the subscriber record, not the customer's account.

For example, if a customer's last name was originally Doe and you change it to, the {lastname} dynamic field will still use Doe until you manually change the last name via their corresponding subscriber record.

{companyname}

Newsletter subscriber's company name.

This information is pulled from the subscriber record, not the customer's account.

For example, if a customer's company name is Business in their account and you add {companyname} to your newsletter, Business won't appear in the newsletter unless you manually add it to the Company name field in their corresponding subscriber record.
