Customer thank you
A thank‑you after an order makes customers feel valued and is the easiest moment to plant the idea of a second order.
Before you start
- Available on paid plans (Starter, Premium, Pro).
Set it up
- Go to Flows and click New flow.
- Under Build customer loyalty, choose Customer thank you · Standard and click Use this template.
- Review the message and the discount, then click Save and Turn on.
How the standard template works
The day after an order is placed, the flow sends a push and, 10 minutes later, an email thanking the customer, with a 10% discount for their next order.
- Trigger: Order created.
- Exit when: the order is cancelled or refunded — nobody is thanked for an order they returned.
- Re‑entry: every time — each order gets its own thank‑you.
Other versions and related templates
- New vs. returning customer — first‑time buyers get a welcome thank‑you with an offer; returning customers get a loyal‑customer thank‑you.
- First purchase thank you & bounceback — for first orders only: a thank‑you the next day, then an offer 14 days later to encourage the second order.
- First purchase anniversary — a message with a gift one year after the first order.
- Tag VIP customers — when a customer's total spending reaches 500, adds the VIP tag in Shopify and sends an exclusive offer.
See Build customer loyalty in the template library.
Tips
- Do not send a discount with every thank‑you if your margins are tight — remove it in the Discount settings, or use the New vs. returning customer version.
