Integration Logic

  • Brevo for WooCommerce

    This integration is powered by a dedicated WordPress plugin that acts as a central hub. It syncs customer and order data from WooCommerce to Brevo, enabling targeted email campaigns and marketing automation based on purchase history and behavior. The plugin can override default WooCommerce transactional emails, sending them via Brevo's robust SMTP for better deliverability and tracking. It also captures e-commerce events like abandoned carts and order completions to trigger specific automation workflows in Brevo. Additionally, the plugin injects Google Analytics tracking code into your WooCommerce store, ensuring that e-commerce events and conversions from Brevo campaigns (via UTM parameters) are accurately reported in your Google Analytics account.
