They contain important information relating to the activity, such as an order confirmation email. Learn more about the differences between transactional emails vs. marketing emails.

Why use transactional emails?

Transactional emails are a vital component of customer communication, offering a reliable and efficient way to relay information, build relationships, and optimize overall user experience. They help to build trust with customers by providing confirmation and updates regarding interactions with a business. What’s more, they also help businesses to automate certain processes, increase engagement, and keep compliant. 

Do transactional emails need an unsubscribe link?

No, as transactional emails do not require opt-in consent, are not promotional in nature, and fall under the lawful base of legitimate interest, they don’t need an unsubscribe link. 

Do I need consent to send transactional emails?

Transactional emails fall under the scope of legitimate interest, meaning that as long as your transactional messages do not contain any marketing material and are relevant to the customer's use of your app, service, e-commerce store, or website, you do not need consent to send them.
