What is a Postback?
Postbacks are a one-time communication of data sent when a specific trigger, or set of triggers are met. This is often used to share one-time data with a third-party vendor or platform.
Postbacks are incredibly powerful in cases where you want to share one-time data that doesn’t need to be updated if information is later changed by the participant (or can’t be updated by the participant).
How your event can utilize Postbacks:
We’re sure you’re already thinking of the ways this can help automate your current processes, but we’re sharing a few ways we’ve seen events utilize this incredible tool:
Add value to your sponsors
What information would be helpful for your sponsors to know? Asking your participants a question related to your sponsors, or creating the opportunity for participants to opt-in and be contacted to learn more can add marketing value to your sponsorship partners!
Please note: We recommend working with a legal consultant when collecting and sharing information to ensure compliance with privacy laws.
Automatically add participants to a mailing list
Create a question to add participants to your marketing mailing list and have participants added as they opt-in! [Insert associated design as noted in above comments]
Send orders to vendors
As participants select specific products, automatically send those details to the appropriate vendors!
