Email Campaign Approvals

Overview

The Email Campaign Approvals tool allows you to seek approvals from advertisers for your intended email campaigns. You can submit the content and format of the proposed email and then enter into a dialogue with the advertiser to ensure full brand compliance.

PLEASE NOTE

It is mandatory for publishers based in the Benelux region or those looking to address audiences in those regions to seek approval from the relevant advertisers before sending email communications.

How to Access

To access the tool go to the Toolbox menu and under Promotional select Email Campaign Approvals.

Requesting approval for a new email campaign

Your campaign text is ready? Then it's time to request approval.

1. Click Add Email Campaign.
2. Fill in the form.
3. As soon as you fill in the field Email Body (HTML), a preview will open right beneath it. Preview the email campaign thoroughly.
4. Optionally add a message to the advertiser.
5. Agree to the terms and conditions.
6. Click Request Approval.

Your approval request is now listed at the top of your email campaign approvals list with the status Awaiting Approval. The advertiser will be notified about your request via email. They can also see it on their email campaign approvals list when logged into the user interface. The advertiser can approve your campaign, request changes, or reject it.

As soon as the status of your approval request changes, you will be notified via email through Awin and the status will be changed in your email campaign approvals list.

Once your approval request has the status Approved your campaign is ready to be sent out.

PLEASE NOTE

• You will not be able to use the tool for same-day approvals.
• You can withdraw approval requests at any stage during the approval process.
• You can request approval from up to 20 advertisers in one go.
• If an advertiser doesn’t respond before the scheduled send date, the campaign will expire. Expired campaigns can be reactivated.
