In the Campaign Monitor email template builder, there is no option to insert an HTML element. The only way to add the Personal Discount code snippet is to use an external tool for creating email templates like [BEE Pro](https://beefree.grsm.io/personal-discount). You can select a pre-built template and modify it or create your own from scratch.
