Configuring the MailBluster integration settings for a widget

The New MailBluster Integration window allows setting up the integration configuration as described below in the following subsections.

When configured, click Done at the bottom of the window.

Enabling Double opt-in email

Double opt-in is used in email marketing to verify the authenticity of subscriber sign-ups. After users submit their email addresses, they receive a confirmation email containing a link that they must click to confirm their subscription.

This process ensures that the provided email addresses are valid and that subscribers genuinely intend to receive communications.

Double opt-in helps businesses maintain a high-quality email list, reduces the likelihood of spam complaints, and improves deliverability rates by ensuring engaged subscribers.

To activate the double opt-in option, enable the Double opt-in email slide button.

NOTE:

If you enable this option, you need to set up Double opt-in in MailBluster. Navigate to this article for details.
For setting up Double opt-in in MailBluster, you also need to connect your AWS account with MailBluster. To learn how to do that, read this article.

Overwriting existing leads

The Overwrite existing leads option enhances lead management by ensuring data accuracy and preventing duplicate entries.

When initiating the creation of a new lead, the system first conducts a search based on the provided email address to check for existing records. If a matching lead is identified, the system offers the option to overwrite its information with the new data.

If no matching lead is found, the system proceeds with creating a new entry.

Where overwriting is not possible, the system gives an error message.

To activate the leads overwriting option, enable the Overwrite existing leads button.

Adding tags

Tags help you to organize and manage your contacts.

To add tags when integrating the Claspo widget with MailBluster:

Click + Add tags.
Type the tag name into the field and press Enter.

You can use the entered tag in MailBluster, for example, for filtering the contacts signed up using this widget.

The Field mapping section contains two types of fields:

Widget fields: Those are the contact fields you add when editing a Claspo template. For example, email, first name, last name, phone number.

To set up the field mapping:
