Email tags pull information from auction form fields and place it in a donor or auction registrant’s emailed receipts and other emails. Tags appear in the following format while you're editing: %INFO%. They'll populate with information from the actual transaction when the email gets sent out. There are many different tags you can use to further personalize your receipts and emails. The following is a glossary of available auction email tags!
Contents:
- Event Registration Email
- Event Checkout Email
- Event Donation Email
- Standard Donation Email
- Dedication Notification Email
- Refund Email
Please note: Tags will not populate when you send a test to yourself because there is no actual transaction information to pull. If you'd like to test your email tags with real information, try running a $1.00 test donation!
