Connect iContact to Digistore24

iContact is a tool for email marketing and offers you comprehensive features, e.g. for automations, split tests and analytics. You can connect iContact to Digistore24. This automatically transfers contacts from Digistore24 to iContact and adds them directly to a selected email list as needed.

Tip

You can create multiple IPN connections for a target system and thereby cover different use cases. The use cases that are possible and sensible also depend on the target system.

Examples

  • Data is to be transferred to multiple email lists or campaigns.
  • When a payment is made, the customer should be added to an email list, and when a refund occurs, the customer should be removed from an email list.
  • For certain products an IPN should only be sent for customer orders, for other products it should also be sent for affiliate partnerships.

Set up a separate IPN connection for each use case for the respective target system.
