Email alerts

Configure automated email alerts for segments of customers.

This guide will help you configure automated email alerts for a segment of customers. A segment of customers share certain common attributes. For example, you may segment your customers based on the following criteria:

• pay by card
• pay using Stripe
• live in a particular geography

You can configure automated email alerts based on events. For example, you can send email alerts reminding the customer of:

• the approaching due date in the event of generation of an invoice
• an overdue payment in the event of passing of the due date

How to create an email alert
