Types of Push Notifications You Can Send with Vegacart
Text Push
A simple message with just text. You can edit the title and message body.
Pro tip: Start strong. Put the key benefit or offer right at the top and feel free to sprinkle in an emoji or two to make it pop.
Image Push
Want to feature a product or collection? Add a photo to your push notification to make it more visual and scroll-stopping.
Pro tip: Lifestyle images with people tend to grab more attention than plain product shots.
GIF (Animated) Push
You can send a short animated push that highlights a collection or individual product with multiple images.
Custom Image Push
Upload photo, write a catchy headline, and send it as a custom image push.
