Introduction

What Vlozi Newsletter is and what you can do with it.

Vlozi Newsletter is a managed email marketing service built into your Vlozi account. You manage subscribers, write templates, and send campaigns from the Vlozi dashboard — no separate email marketing platform needed.

What you get

  • Subscriber management — a searchable, filterable list of your subscribers. Import an existing list or grow it with an embedded subscribe form.
  • Double opt-in — every public sign-up triggers a confirmation email. Subscribers who click Confirm are marked active. Unconfirmed addresses are never emailed.
  • Templates — write and save reusable email templates in the dashboard's code editor. Insert subscriber names, brand colours, and post metadata with {{ variables }}.
  • Campaigns — create a campaign from a template, choose a segment, set a send time, and fire. The send pipeline scales to tens of thousands of recipients without a size limit.
  • Segments — slice your audience by tags, status, or subscription date. Use segments to send the right email to the right group.
  • Blog integration — connect your Vlozi Blog to your newsletter so a campaign goes out automatically every time you publish a post.
  • Analytics — open rate, click rate, bounce rate, and delivery stats for every campaign, visible in the dashboard.

How it works

Visitor signs up → confirmation email sent → visitor clicks Confirm → subscriber becomes Active
 
Dashboard → create campaign → choose segment → fire campaign
  → credits charged upfront
  → one email queued per subscriber
  → delivered via Resend
  → stats updated in real time

Key constraints to know

Constraint Value
Pricing 1 credit = 5 emails (Math.ceil(recipients / 5) credits per campaign)
Test send cost 1 credit
Subscriber import limit 5,000 per request
Imported subscribers Confirmed immediately (no double opt-in on import)
Suppression list Global — a hard bounce on any tenant suppresses the address for all
Template variables Resolved at send time; unknown tokens pass through unchanged
Campaign body Snapshot at create time — editing a template does not change existing campaigns
