Open Time Content - Overview

Open Time Content offers a variety of widgets that you can add to your email campaign to display different types of content, dynamically updated when recipients open the email. Here are just a few examples of how it can transform your messages:

Emarsys Open Time Content widgets are content placeholders, embedded as HTML tags in email campaigns to provide dynamic content, in real time, as customers access the email. This content can be taken automatically from your website, product feed or social feed and then further personalized to the customer’s context or behavior at the point of opening. All content is always delivered in the form of an image file, usually with an associated click-through URL.

Open Time Content widgets are easily created within the Emarsys user interface. Each widget results in an HTML tag that can be simply pasted into your email template; from then on the tag does the work.

Widgets can be used in multiple campaigns at the same time, and can be grouped together for easy overview and reporting.
