Add a Barcode Image Engage+ supports the inclusion of barcodes into your email marketing Campaign. Barcodes can then be printed out by the consumer and brought into a store to gain access to a special offer or promotion. Or, the consumer can bring up the email message containing the barcode and scan the barcode right from the smartphone. Note: Barcodes are also available in the print Channel, but only if you're using PageFlex to create the print content, and have the necessary PageFlex plug-ins installed. Within Engage+, you can configure your email Campaign to generate a static barcode for each Campaign (all recipients of the Campaign receive the same barcode) or unique barcodes for each user (each individual receives a unique barcode). Unique barcodes on a user-level basis can be generated using personalization (see "Personalized Barcodes" below). Barcodes are inserted within the HTML version of a campaign (triggered and regular one-off) and using an image tag. The barcode never expires and is generated on the fly. The barcode is a dynamic .png image file. Below is an example of a barcode image: The barcode URL format is: https://<subDomain>/ats/barcode.ashx For example: Domain will be customer specific for each brand or it can be the generic "ats.ccmp.eu" domain. Add Barcodes to a CampaignTo add barcodes to an email Campaign:
<img src="http://client.test.domain.ashx?bc=55555"> Query String ParametersBelow are details on how to dynamically render a barcode based on query string values passed in. Details show configuring the different barcode types, specifying the size of the generated barcode and encoding options. URL: http://temp.ccmp.eu/ats/barcode.ashx?bc=EXPERIAN&t=true&e=13&w=200&h=100
The parameter details of the example barcode URL are: http://temp.ccmp.eu/ats/barcode.ashx?bc=BARCODE&t=true&e=4&h=50&w=210
Advanced ParameterClick HereClick HereIn addition to the basic barcode parameters described above, Engage+ supports several advanced parameters. Readable DigitsBy default, the barcode image in your email message will not display readable digits beneath the image. If you want to display readable digits, enter "&t=true" into the barcode URL, as shown in the following example: <img src="http://client.test.domain.ashx?bc=55555&t=true"> Image DimensionsIf you want to specify the dimensions of the barcode image, you can manually enter the height and width by entering "&h=[height in pixels]&w=[width in pixels]" into the barcode URL, as shown in the following example: <img src="http://client.test.domain.ashx?bc=55555&h=50&w=210"> If specifying the image dimensions, you must provide BOTH the height and the width. EncodingTwo basic barcode types, "1D (Code 39)" and "2D (PDF417)," are available for selection from the "Barcode Image" pop-up window, as described above. The system supports several other barcode types as well. The following table lists all of the available barcode types, and their associated ID.
* Encoding type 4 (Code 39) is the default type; if you don't specify an encoding type within the barcode URL, the system will utilize this type. To specify an encoding type, enter "&e=[ID]" in the barcode URL, as shown in the following example: <img src="http://client.test.domain.ashx?bc=55555&e=7"> Personalized BarcodesAs described above, the "Barcode Image" pop-up window allows you to enter a static value that will be the same on every email message in your Campaign. If you want personalized barcodes instead, you must specify the personalization field that you want to use, and insert the Merge Code for that field into the proper place in the Barcode URL. To create personalized barcodes:

Add a LINE URL A LINE URL is a special system-generated URL that's used in the process of linking a consumer's LINE identifier (called the "LINE MID") and email address. This linkage is required if you want to use consumer demographic information in your LINE Campaign (such as adding Personalization Fields, for example), or if you want to execute a cross channel strategy that incorporates both LINE and email channels. For more details on this process, please see LINE Cross Channel Marketing. The link between the consumer's LINE identifier and email address is established using a unique identifier called the "LINE Token." The LINE URL contains your LINE Account name and the consumer's unique LINE Token. For example: https://line.me/R/oaMessage/@LINE_Account/%40TOKEN%20{(LineToken)} When the consumer clicks this link in an email message, the LINE application opens, and the message is automatically populated with: "@TOKEN <LINE Token>." When the consumer sends this LINE message to Messaging, the platform is able to establish the link between his or her LINE MID and email address. To add a link to a LINE URL within your message content:
