HTML Template Specifications

Redcat do not provide HTML formatted emails for Polygon Loyalty.  However, these may be implemented on behalf of the client as provided by a designer or web developer.   

The following recommendations apply: 

  • Email templates must be HTML only, any CSS and styling must be embedded in the document. 
  • Images may be hosted externally, or they can be hosted by Redcat [png format only as some email clients have issues displaying jpg format] 
  • Available data fields from the Loyalty database which are stored against the receiving member may be inserted within the email to personalise the content. It is recommended that we only use fields marked as ‘Required’ during registration, to ensure data is always going to be available. Example: FirstName. 

 

Email 'From' Address

All system generated emails will be sent from one address. Redcat recommends that you provide an email address that is monitored. For example: hello@cafename.com.au  

See below for example contents of each system email.
