Trigger Links

Trigger links are designed to start a response based on what and where a customer clicks. Given their practical applications, trigger links are most commonly used in campaigns, emails, funnels, and websites. Understanding exactly when and why the trigger should occur will improve campaign deliverability and effectiveness. For example, you could have a website entry geared towards an account conversion which triggers an automated onboarding process for successful shoppers or encourage quick purchases with cart abandonment triggers for potential buyers who leave merchandise in their digital carts.

NOTE: Depending on your user permissions, you may not have access to all of the components.
