How to Create and Send Product & Service Bulk Email Messages

Send email to segments

Create templates and send bulk email notifications for all, or a segment of your clients' products based on product & service parameters that you define. These parameters include Product, Price, Status, Provision Configuration, Client parameters and more. You can also quickly send new messages by duplicating and customising a template.

This will send one email per order product, so if a client has more than one matching product they will receive more than one email.

If you wish to send a bulk notification to clients irrespective of products and services, there's a separate guide here.
