Instructions

Please use the following as best practices to get the strongest return on ad spend for your ad campaign:

Creative:
Make sure to run photogenic, attention-grabbing, and highly compelling brand images that get users interested in your ad.

Welcome emails:
Introduce financing to your customers and tap unmet consumer demand with a welcome campaign. Language and examples can be found below.

Ongoing emails:
Add a financing banner to all outbound customer emails, linking to your Financing Page.

Abandoned carts:
Language below to target customers who have abandoned their cart, using one of the following strategies:

  1. All Customers: Consider retargeting anyone who lands on the website (particularly for high AOV, high consideration products).

Non-healthcare merchants can retarget customers using the Bread Pay "Applicant Report" in your Bread Pay merchant portal to increase take rates by most effectively targeting abandoned users:
2. Didn't provide enough information to see if pre-qualified: Reassure customers who have abandoned the form that financing is fast and doesn’t impact their credit score.
3. Approved: Send an email to approved customers reminding them that they can pursue financing.
4. Denied: Offer a promotion to encourage the customer to continue with their purchase. Do not mention Bread Pay or the denial. Example copy: “You are a valued customer. Use this promo code: XXX to receive $50 OFF your purchase!”*

Please note that Bread Pay also retargets on behalf of our merchant partners. More detail here.
