Send unique coupons for your subscribers birthday

Birthday marketing campaigns achieve an average email open rate of 60%, click-through rates of 10% and a conversion rates of 5%.

How does it work?

1. You ask your customers for their birthday (using plugins or in your subscription popup).

2. Personal Discount generates a unique coupon code one day before your users birthday and pushes it to Mailchimp.

3. Mailchimp sends the coupon code in an email, using the normal Birthday campaign.

Configuring Mailchimp

The last step is to configure Mailchimp to send the email. Visit your Mailchimp dashboard and create an automated birthday campaign, by clicking on "Say 'Happy Birthday'"
