Automatic Text
Automatic Text is an optional feature used for automatically customizing personalized shopper information in your Welcome Popup text. This is done using variables that pull information from the database. You can make use of this feature by pasting the required automatic text placeholder in your text.

{Shipping message} parameter: informs shoppers about the lowest cart range required to qualify for free shipping to their country.

Using Custom Fonts
Follow these guidelines when using non-standard fonts in your emails.
Use Web-Safe Fonts as Fallbacks
Always specify a web-safe font as a fallback in case the custom font does not load.
Common web-safe fonts include Arial, Verdana, Georgia, and Times New Roman.
Host Fonts Appropriately
Host the fonts on a reliable server or use a service like Google Fonts or Adobe Fonts.
Ensure that the font files are compressed (e.g., WOFF or WOFF2 format) to minimize loading time.
Use Inline CSS for Font Integration
Apply custom fonts using inline CSS within the <style> tag or directly within HTML elements.
Example:
<style> @font-face { font-family: 'CustomFont'; src: url('https://your-server.com/fonts/customfont.woff2') format('woff2'); } .custom-text { font-family: 'CustomFont', Arial, sans-serif; } </style> <p class="custom-text">This is custom font text.</p>
Test Across Multiple Email Clients
Different email clients render fonts differently. Test emails across popular clients to ensure the custom font displays.
Pay attention to mobile clients as well.
Limit the Use of Custom Fonts
Use custom fonts sparingly, reserving them for headers or branding elements.
For longer bodies of text, use standard web-safe fonts.
Consider Email Load Times
Custom fonts can increase the size of the email, which might affect load times. Ensure the font files are as small as possible.
Keep the total email size under 102KB to avoid clipping in some email clients.
Ensure Legal Compliance
Verify that you have the correct licensing to use and distribute the font in emails.
Monitor Email Deliverability
Custom fonts can sometimes cause deliverability issues. Monitor open rates, click rates, and spam reports.
Fallback on System Fonts in Case of Issues
If any issues arise, be prepared to revert to system fonts to ensure the email remains functional.
Moving from Testing Environment to Production
When you are ready to move to Production, follow these steps for each email type:
In the Testing environment, download the current HTML and the current text resources file.

Download Current HTML

Download the current text resources file
In the Production environment, select the relevant email type (e.g. Order Confirmed).
Upload the HTML downloaded in step #1.
Upload the text resources file downloaded in step #2.
Click Save Changes.

Preview and Test.
Click Publish.

Placeholders
The Global‑e templates are based on the Mustache templating specification and language. For more information on Mustache, see https://mustache.github.io/mustache.5.html.
Mustache serves as a powerful templating system that enables the utilization of pre-existing text files containing designated placeholders. These placeholders are dynamically substituted with values specific to a particular request during runtime.
Global‑e supports two types of placeholders that you can use in the HTML template:
Placeholders related to Orders, such as the order ID, shipping address, totals, products, and more.
Custom placeholders to manage Text Resources, which can hold texts, translations, links, and html snippets for the header, footer, and CSS.
Custom Placeholders
Custom placeholders often start with the prefix TR_ to differentiate between order placeholders and resource placeholders. However, this convention is not mandatory.
Example: TR_Salutation
To add, create and upload custom placeholders:
Include your custom placeholder values in your text resource file as keys (without
{}).Include the custom placeholders' unique key {
TR_Salutation} in your HTML template.
Required Placeholders

SenderName

[CountryName].SenderName

Managing Your Placeholders
This page describes the following:
Introduction to Placeholders
The Global-e templates are based on the Mustache templating specification and language. Mustache serves as a powerful templating system that enables the utilization of pre-existing text files containing designated placeholders. These placeholders are dynamically substituted with values specific to a particular request during runtime. Global-e supports two types of placeholders that you can use in the HTML template: Placeholders related to orders, such as the order ID, shipping address, totals, products, and more. Custom placeholders to manage Text Resources, which can hold texts, translations, links, and html snippets for the header, footer, and CSS.
Emails are automatically generated based on predefined templates containing specific email elements, known as resource keys, that make up the email. Some examples of resource keys are SenderEmail, SenderName, and Subject. Because the emails are sent to different recipients, these resource keys have variables that pull information to personalize them. The resource keys are populated in the subsequent rows in the sheet, with each column representing one of the available languages. Note that you see both a desktop and mobile preview below the available menus.
A text resource file can include the resource keys shown below. Note that only SenderEmail, SenderName, and Subject are required resource keys.
Resource Key | Description | Example | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
SenderEmail | Shows the sender’s email address. | Required | |
SenderName | Shows the sender’s full name. | Required | |
Subject | Shows the email’s subject line. | Required | |
TR_AutomaticEmail | Shows the automatically generated response to an incoming email. | ||
TR_ContactUs | Shows the contact message. | ||
TR_DescriptionParagraph | Shows the email body. | ||
