# How to create welcome new subscribers automation with Omnisend

In this tutorial, we will show you how to create a welcome campaign with a discount code using Omnisend and Personal Discount for Shopify.

Start by navigating to your **Shopify dashboard** > **Apps** > **Personal Discount** > **Add automation**. Select **Omnisend** as your Email Service Provider and the Campaign Type is **Welcome new subscribers**.

Now set your automation details such as the code pattern, the discount value, the expiration date, etc. Take a look at the article on [how to configure discount](/personal-discount-for-shopify/configure-discount.md) to modify it to best suit your need.

When you have finished this process, **Save** your automation and copy the code snippet to the clipboard.
