Automatically synchronize contacts from your Magento website with your Brevo account

By selecting Yes, new subscribers to your e-store newsletter will now automatically be added to the contacts database in your Brevo account. You can select the list to which new subscribers will be saved.

Access the list of contacts in which you have synchronized your new subscribers directly from the Contact tab of your Brevo account. You will be able to find all the data provided by these subscribers during their subscription in this list.

Manage subscription confirmation 

If you want to use Brevo to manage subscription confirmation from your Magento website, select Yes.

Once this option has been selected, select a Magento default subscription form or choose a custom one from the list that will be activated on the home page of your Magento website. (partie supprimée) If you choose a double opt-in confirmation, you can also redirect your customers to a landing page or a specific page of your website. You can also choose to send a confirmation email that will automatically be sent to confirm their subscription. You can choose a default template or a custom one from the list.

What data is synchronized?

If a contact has subscribed via the website default footer, only the EMAIL field will be synchronized.

If a contact has created a Magento account and subscribed to your newsletter, the following fields will be synchronized:

Automatically track sales with Brevo

Check this option to automatically import details of your customers' orders into your Brevo database. This will show you the sales generated by your customers in the last X days. It may then be used to segment your database based on sales (e.g. provide a special offer to your VIP customers).

Automatically track your customers' behavior on your website

Check this option to track your customers' actions on your website. You can also check the second option to automatically send an email to remind your customers of their abandoned cart on your website. 

Optimize the deliverability of your transactional emails 

By selecting Yes to activate Brevo SMTP, your transactional emails (order confirmations, password resets, etc.) will be sent via the Brevo SMTP. 

Send SMS/text messages 

Brevo also lets you send SMS directly from your Magento back office, such as:

• Order confirmation SMS,
• Order shipment SMS,
• Campaign SMS, e.g. countdown to the sales.

When you send campaign SMS to your subscribers/customers from this interface, the campaign will automatically be created in your Brevo account. You can then check your campaign report (SMS delivered, opened, clicked on, etc.) from your Brevo account. If you only send your campaign to one contact, it will not be created in your Brevo account.

You can personalize your SMS with attributes that exist in your Brevo database as shown in the screenshot below, e.g. {first_name}. 

If you would like to create a targeted segment to use in an SMS campaign, it must be created within your Brevo account. Within the back office of your Magento website, the possible targets are limited to:

• All your Magento contacts
• Magento contacts subscribed to your newsletter
• A single contact
