Sending a welcome email with a quiz link
A welcome email is a way to welcome your users to your quiz or course. It is an optional notification that you can turn on or off and is triggered when a user purchases your quiz or course.
You can customize the email with a message in any language and add default variables that populate essential information, such as quiz link, exam name or course name.
This guide shows you how to set up a welcome email with a quiz link, sent when your users buy a single quiz.
How it works
The system sends a welcome email once your user’s payment for a single quiz is successfully processed through Stripe. The system sends a welcome message to each user’s email address provided on the Stripe payment page.
If you have an Enterprise account, you can send the welcome email from your own email address (not @flexiquiz.com) using our SMTP connection feature.
The email message can be customized and includes a unique link that allows users to access the quiz. Each user will receive their own unique URL so that they can only access the test based on the rules you set. For example, if you allow people to take the quiz five times, they can click on the link and access the test up to 5 times or until the quiz closes.
