Campaign merge fields are useful time-savers when information in your campaign changes frequently. For example, if you have five emails in a campaign that all reference a constantly changing date, a campaign merge field will save you from editing all five emails every time the date changes; all you have to do is change the value of the campaign merge field.
- The merge field can only be text
- There is no limit to the amount of campaign merge fields you can create
- A campaign merge can only be used in the campaign that it was created in
- Campaign merge fields are available to use in any email from the campaign that it was created in
