Reference Tags

To create email that addresses customers with personalized content and other loyalty-based content, you can include reference tags. Depending on their functions, they can also be called personalization tags, dynamic fields, or dynamic content tags.

The tags discussed in this topic are those that insert customer-specific data from the Reward database into your email communications. You simply add these pieces of HTML code (sometime called "tags" for short) into the Rich Content page in the Email Communication Wizard, or into the Content Item Rich Content page of the Content Item wizard.

Note: Do not modify or add parameters to tags. Modifying tags can result in unexpected consequences. For example, adding parameters to the unsubscribe link can make it impossible for a customer to unsubscribe.

See also the Rich Content pages, which provide the means and methods that you use to select and generate tags and to paste them directly into the HTML code for an email message or content item.

* In the tag, :# refers to a particular offer slot, defined at the time you create your email within the Reward CRM Suite. The pound sign must be replaced with a number between 1 and 6, corresponding to the offer slot of your email. For example, the tag @(o:headline:2) would render the headline for the offer that is in the number 2 slot within a given email.
