Overview
Email Templates are prewritten emails that can be quickly, easily and, depending on the settings, automatically be generated to be sent to your customers.
If you are wanting to change the contents of the email, we have a built-in and easy to use tool to help you do just that. If you are uncomfortable doing this, please don't be afraid to contact our support team.
Velocity Codes are special lines of coding in the Email Templates which pull names, addresses, emails etc. from the 'System Configuration' page.
