Hey guys,
I’m trying to add a gift recipients email address collected on the cart to my email list in Klaviyo so we can email them the gift information.
I’m able to collect the email address as a cart attribute and it successfully adds to the order using the input tag below:
However I need to then add that {{ cart.attributes[“giftee-email”] }} into shopify as a contact or directly into Klaviyo so that I can email them.
Any thoughts on how I can do that?
usemechanic app to automate something like that, or third party services like zapier , integromat
Contact me if you need a mechanic script to create customers from those emails
An alternative non-cohesive hack would be to submit a contact form on their behalf using the giftee-email, you’d have the contact , but not necessarily any post-order creation data.
