Overview
appyReward equips marketers with best-in-class lead and campaign management tools (emailing, contest) that allow Sendinblue users to easily create attractive campaigns by adding digital incentives within their emails, forms, and landing pages.
The platform gives users full control of the gifting experience to save time and resources while increasing engagement. Beside classic emailing, you can also build e-gift contests or giveaways with full control over the number of prizes and the frequency of winners to stay in budget. Reward delivery and redemption are tracked making it easy to measure your marketing efforts.

Add contacts to your campaign
On this screen, you can set the number of contacts to gift. It will create as many access codes (Gift-Links) as subscribers registered in the segment.
In this example, we'll start by adding contacts to "Segment 1". To do so, click on Sendinblue List.
A pop up with all of your Sendinblue lists will display. Select the list you want to send a campaign to, then click on the SAVE button. Here we're selecting the Sendinblue list named "The box".
The number of contacts will automatically be updated depending on the Sendinblue list that you have selected.
Optional: Enter your predictable response rate to calculate the minimum number of gifts you need to satisfy the demand. The response rate is a ratio - the percentage of contacts who would claim a reward.
💡 Good to know
Not everyone will claim their gift during your campaign, it is up to you to estimate your response rate to optimize your campaign. During the campaign, you will be notified about the progress of actual deliveries versus the estimates and you may adjust the amounts during the campaign.
Add a gift to your campaign
Click on CHOOSE A GIFT.
Set the value of the gift you want to offer by double-clicking on the selected e-gift.
If you choose prepaid e-gift cards, you will need first to top up your account balance with enough funds for this purchase.
