Transactional messages: the backbone of customer experience

How long does it take you to panic when you don’t receive a confirmation mail after making a big purchase online? Some messages are just too important to leave to the whims of deliverability, and so transactional emails came to being.

They’re perfect for business-critical communication, like purchase confirmations, billing information, password resets,... and you can build, trigger and personalize them in Actito, just like you would with any other email in the editor.

Transactional messages: the backbone of customer experience

The arrow that never misses

As said, transactional messages are meant for business-critical, non-commercial purposes. A marketing email has a lot of prerequisites to be sent out legally: you need one’s marketing consent, a specific opt-in in some cases, an email domain configured for marketing mails (preferably with a good reputation for deliverability) etc.

Transactional emails have their own domain and don’t require opt-ins nor marketing consent. Our dedicated infrastructure guarantees security, reliability and scalability. And more importantly: delivery. Some examples of transactional emails:

  • Purchase confirmation

  • Account creation confirmation

  • Satisfaction survey related to a purchase

  • Confirm a registration to an event

Why should you care?

Inconsistent branding throughout your communications can make your customer feel like they’ve been scammed or can at least make them feel like the love is over once the deal is done. Transactional messages play a crucial part in customer experience and customer journeys.

The question is not whether you use transactional (because you should by default), but rather how much they add to the experience of your customers. These messages are known to drive significant additional revenue, but it's up to you to seize them.
