FAQ
Why is email marketing and CRM important for brands in the online trading space?
Acquiring new clients is becoming increasingly expensive, which makes it even more important to maximize the value of every lead. Getting users to sign up is only the first step. The real challenge is keeping them engaged, educating them, and encouraging them to become active traders. Markets are constantly moving, and traders want to know what’s happening. Whether it’s interest rate decisions, major economic events, or market volatility, timely and relevant communication helps keep your brand top of mind.
Aren’t emails still relevant in online trading?
Absolutely. Email remains one of the biggest revenue drivers in the online trading industry. Our research shows that companies continue to increase the number of emails they send, while many leading brokers still achieve open rates between 15% and 30% for important campaigns. That makes email one of the most effective marketing channels available. At the same time, push notifications and WhatsApp are becoming increasingly important and should complement, rather than replace, email.
What are the requirements for an email marketing or CRM solution?
It depends on the maturity of your business and your specific business model. A startup with a few thousand contacts has very different requirements than a global broker with millions of customers. There are excellent entry-level solutions that are quick to implement, as well as enterprise platforms offering advanced automation, personalization, AI capabilities, and deep integrations. The right choice depends on your scale, budget, and marketing objectives.
What is the most important automated customer journey?
Without a doubt, it’s the welcome journey. First impressions matter. New users should receive all the information they need to get started, understand your platform, and build trust in your brand. A strong onboarding journey helps move users towards their first deposit, introduces key platform features, and keeps them engaged during those critical first days and weeks.
How often should I send emails?
There is no perfect number. You can send multiple emails per week if they’re relevant and provide value. The key is segmentation, not frequency. Avoid sending the same campaign to your entire database. Instead, deliver personalized messages based on user behaviour, interests, and lifecycle stage. If your content is timely, useful, and relevant, subscribers are far less likely to see it as spam.
