Most loyalty emails are too passive.
They tell customers they earned something, but they rarely help the customer take the next step. A shopper earns wallet coins, creates a coupon, receives a reward, or becomes eligible for a review request, and then gets a basic notification that feels disconnected from the rest of the buying journey.
The Nector + Mailmodo integration helps brands make loyalty communication more action-oriented.
With this integration, customer activity events from Nector can be sent to Mailmodo. Brands can then use those events to trigger Mailmodo journeys and send emails when specific loyalty actions happen, such as wallet coins being rewarded or a coupon being created. Nector's help guide explains that events can be sent to Mailmodo when certain actions happen in Nector, and those events can trigger Mailmodo automations.
This matters because Mailmodo is built around email marketing automation and interactive emails. Mailmodo describes its platform as a way to create emails, automate journeys, and add interactivity to improve conversions.
For Shopify, DTC, ecommerce, and omnichannel brands, the Nector + Mailmodo integration helps turn loyalty activity into timely email journeys that can educate, remind, and bring customers back to purchase.

Why Email Automation Matters for Loyalty Programs
Loyalty programs are not just about giving points. They are about creating a loop that customers understand.
A customer should know what they earned, why they earned it, how they can use it, what happens next, and why they should come back.
Email is one of the best channels for explaining that journey because it gives brands space to educate customers clearly. But email becomes much stronger when it is triggered by real customer behavior instead of generic campaign timing.
Nector's integrations page positions Mailmodo as an email marketing integration that helps brands use rewards program data for personalized emails and targeted campaigns.
| Nector activity | Mailmodo journey opportunity |
|---|---|
| Wallet Coins Rewarded | Send a “you earned coins” email |
| Coupon Is Created | Send a coupon reminder email |
| Referral activity | Send referral reward or next-step emails |
| Coin expiry | Send expiry reminder emails |
| Review request | Send post-purchase review request emails |
| Loyalty education | Explain how customers can earn and redeem |
The goal is not to send more emails. The goal is to send emails that match what the customer just did.
What the Nector + Mailmodo Integration Does
The Nector + Mailmodo integration connects selected Nector events with Mailmodo journeys, helping merchants connect Mailmodo with Nector using a Mailmodo API key, select Email as the common customer property, create a Mailmodo list from Nector, send selected customer activity events from Nector to Mailmodo, use Nector events as triggers inside Mailmodo journeys, trigger emails when wallet coins are rewarded or when customers create coupons using wallet coins, and send test events before launch.
Nector highlights two commonly used events: Wallet Coins Rewarded and Coupon Is Created.
How the Nector + Mailmodo Integration Workflow Works
Step 1: Open Email & WhatsApp Marketing in Nector
The setup starts inside the Nector dashboard. Merchants go to the Integrations page, click Email & WhatsApp Marketing in the sidebar, and look for Mailmodo. From there, they click Configure to open the Mailmodo integration page.
Step 2: Get the Mailmodo API Key
To enable the integration, the merchant needs an API key from Mailmodo. Inside Mailmodo, merchants go to Settings → API Keys, click Add API Key, give it a name, and then click Show API Key to copy the newly created key. That API key is then pasted into the Nector dashboard.
Step 3: Select Email as the Common Property
Under Choose Common Property, merchants should select Email as the communication method. Nector's help guide explains that the common property refers to the Nector user property used when sending the event. For Mailmodo, email is the relevant customer identifier.
Step 4: Add a List Name
During setup, Nector asks for a List Name. Merchants can give the list any relevant name, such as Nector Customers, Loyalty Customers, or Rewards Members. Nector's guide says that a list with this name will be created automatically, and all customers on Nector will be added to it.
Step 5: Initialize the Integration
After adding the API key, selecting Email as the common property, and adding the list name, the merchant clicks Initialize. Once initialized, the Mailmodo integration is enabled inside Nector.
Step 6: Create an Event in Nector
After the integration is enabled, the merchant can send events from Nector to Mailmodo. Inside the Mailmodo integration page, the merchant switches to the Events tab and clicks Create an Event. Common examples include Wallet Coins Rewarded and Coupon Is Created.
Step 7: Send a Test Event
Before the event can be used inside Mailmodo, the merchant should send a test event from Nector. Nector's guide says sending a test event makes the event available in the Mailmodo dashboard so it can be used as a journey trigger. The customer email used for the test must already exist in the store's customer database.
Step 8: Create a Journey in Mailmodo
After the test event is sent, the merchant can build a journey inside Mailmodo. The merchant goes to Journey, clicks Create Journey, chooses Start from Scratch, selects the occurrence of an event, configures the trigger, and chooses the Nector event trigger such as walletreward_create. This turns the Nector event into the starting point for an automated Mailmodo journey.
Step 9: Add the Email Campaign
After selecting the trigger, the merchant drags and drops Send Campaign into the journey. Then they configure the email subject, content, template, and other settings. After adding the email step, the merchant can add Exit Journey, connect the flow, and publish the journey.
Once published, the Mailmodo journey can send an email when the selected Nector event occurs.
Use Cases for Shopify and DTC Brands
1. Send Wallet Coins Rewarded Emails
Example message: “Your latest order just earned you 120 coins. Here’s how to use them on your next purchase.”
2. Send Coupon Created Emails
Example message: “Your reward coupon is ready. Use it before your next checkout.”
3. Build Loyalty Education Journeys
Mailmodo journeys can help educate customers after loyalty activity happens: how to earn coins, how to redeem coins, how coupons work, how referrals work, how reviews can earn rewards, and when coins expire.
4. Send Coin Expiry Reminder Emails
Example message: “Your coins are expiring soon. Redeem them before they expire.”
5. Trigger Referral Follow-Up Emails
Brands can use Mailmodo to follow up with referral participants, explain reward status, and encourage another referral.
6. Send Review Request Journeys
Brands can use Mailmodo to send review request emails and, depending on the Nector setup, connect review participation with loyalty rewards.
7. Create Interactive Retention Emails
Because Mailmodo focuses on interactive email experiences and automated journeys, brands can think beyond simple notification emails. They can use email to educate customers, guide them to redeem rewards, collect feedback, or move them through loyalty journeys with less friction.
