​
Primary Purpose

Manage the transactional emails TWICE sends — order confirmations plus your own custom emails.
Eight system email templates are built in. You can edit their subject and content but not delete them.Templates in Draft status are not sent until you activate them.
Create additional emails to customers or your team, with a subject and HTML content.
Each email template — system or custom — can have per-language content. Select a language in the template editor to write a translated version of the subject and body.When you edit in a language other than the source language, the override is stored as a translation. The template resolves content in this order:
  1. Per-language override — the translated subject and body for the recipient’s language, if one exists.
  2. Template content — the subject and body saved on the template itself (your source language version).
  3. Code default — for system templates only, the built-in default in the requested language.
Custom templates have no code default — if no per-language override exists, the source-language content is used.You can revert a system template to its code default at any time from the editor.
Attach document templates, policy documents, or uploaded files to an email.
Send a test email to yourself, and keep a template draft or active.
Emails are sent from your organisation’s contact email (set in Account details). There is no separate sender or SPF/DKIM configuration here.

Email Language

Order notification emails render in the customer’s language. The system determines the language as follows:
  1. The storefront captures the customer’s browsing language during checkout.
  2. At order creation, the customer record stores this language.
  3. When sending the email, the system validates the customer’s language against your enabled languages. If the language is enabled, the email renders in that language. Otherwise, it falls back to your default language.
Both the template content and system-generated copy (dates, labels, line items) render in the same language — emails are never a mix of two languages.

​
Template Variables

Email templates use Handlebars syntax for dynamic content. Wrap a variable name in double curly braces — {{variable}} — to insert order data into the subject or body.

​
Helpers

Helpers format raw values before they appear in the email. Standard Handlebars block helpers are available: {{#each}}, {{#if}}, {{#unless}}, {{#with}}.

​
Order variables

Order email templates receive the full Order object. Commonly used fields: Access line items with {{#each lineItems}}. Each item exposes name, startDate, endDate, purchaseType, pricing, and variants.

​
Timezone handling

Date and time helpers (formatDate, formatDateTime) render values in the pickup location’s timezone. If the location has no timezone set, the system falls back to your account’s default timezone. This means customers see dates matching the location they are picking up from — not UTC.

​
Subject example

Use template variables in the subject line to create dynamic subjects:
If a template variable or helper contains a syntax error, the email still sends with the raw text. No email is lost due to a template mistake.
