Automating your Giftograms for birthdays and anniversaries (smart campaigns)

Use smart campaigns to automatically trigger gifts on key dates like birthdays, anniversaries, and big company milestones via digital delivery.

Some examples of smart campaigns may include:

- Employee birthdays

- Service anniversaries

*NOTE: By default, all new smart campaigns will require admin approval before gifts are sent. This means that if a gift is in the queue to be sent, you and your team admin will receive an email notifying you that the admin must approve the order. These approvals can be found in your team's approval queue. If you do not require approval, disable this feature:

2. Select the gift details:

Select the gift amount, what region (U.S. or Canada), and what catalog recipients will receive (For example, All Retailers, Restaurants Only, Coffee Only, etc.):

Brand kits let you configure custom logos, colors, senders, and messaging for your campaigns.
