What is Transactional Message?

An automated message tied to a specific user action, like an order confirmation or receipt.

A transactional message is triggered by a customer's own action or account event — placing an order, resetting a password, booking an appointment. Unlike promotional messages, it delivers expected, requested information.

Because they are anticipated and relevant, transactional messages enjoy very high open and engagement rates. They include confirmations, receipts, shipping notices, reminders, and authentication codes.

They are the backbone of a trustworthy customer experience: timely, accurate, and useful.
