Setting Up Geotargeting

Yespo lets you target users based on their location. The location is defined from their IP address.

Send personalized information to people from different regions. Bet on quality rather than on quantity.

Use our dynamic segments for geotargeted campaigns.

How Geo-tracking Works In Yespo

Yespo receives contact location data when

• A contact clicks a link in any marketing email message
• Web push message is delivered
• A contact uses a mobile application
• Our script sends the following widget-related events:
  • View
  • Click
  • Subscribe
  • Submit (for request forms)
• The contact is identified from the webcontact web tracking event; data about the language can be obtained from the headers of this event if the Language field is empty in the card of such a contact.

Each time one of the above actions is performed, the contact's location data is updated (except the web tracking event, which does not update, but only records the relevant data if it is not in the contact card).

Also, you can import location user data to our system. The principle of its updating will be the same.

📘

Note

Location data can't be updated through the API, and it is not returned by the Get contact resource. The contact's time zone and language are available through the API — see Tracking User Time Zone and Language.
