Using Merge Tags

Merge tags allow you to personalize your email templates by dynamically inserting information, such as customer details or booking data.

  • How to Add Merge Tags: Within any text element, use the Merge Tags dropdown in the formatting panel to view a list of available tags.

  • Inserting Merge Tags: Simply click the desired tag to insert it inline with your copy.

For example, adding the tag [Owner First Name] in your text will automatically display the customer’s name, like "Hi, John!" in the final email. Merge tags ensure your emails feel tailored and professional.
