How to Send Order Notifications

Setting up automatic customer notifications with order details.
When you sell products or services using a shopping cart, order notifications–such as emails informing customers when their payment has gone through–can be sent automatically. Clients who opt to pay cash on delivery will also receive an email notification.
There are two ways a notification can be sent by email:

1) Using a custom domain email address
2) Via SendGrid
How to send notifications using a custom domain email address

Make sure that the shopping cart has an email input field.

Go to the Site Settings → Payment Systems → General payment settings → Edit Settings
Create a new email address where you'd like to receive these notifications.

It is important to create a new mailbox for notifications because we do not want to have access to your personal email.

If you use Gmail, please read: https://myaccount.google.com/lesssecureapps

After you have created a new mailbox, select the "Allow less secure apps" checkbox to allow some apps and devices to use less secure sign-in technology.
Fill in the input fields:

Outgoing mail server (SMTP): you can find information on the email port and security type in the mail service's references. For Gmail, these are smtp.gmail.com, 465, and SSL.

Email (from) is the email address notifications will be sent from.

Subject and email template are the content of an email notification. You may use four dynamic variables:
{{order_number}}
{{amount}}
{{order_date}}
{{order_details}}
Example

Let's use "notifications@support.info" as an example:
Save changes and send a test email.
Following a successful payment (or selecting "Cash on delivery"), a customer will receive an email notification about the transaction.
How to send notifications via SendGrid
Create and copy the API key in the settings of your SendGrid account
Return to Tilda → Site Settings → Payment Systems → General payment settings
→ Customer order notification settings
Edit subject and content of the email.

You may use four dynamic variables:
{{order_number}}
{{amount}}
{{order_date}}
{{order_details}}

Order information will appear inside the curly brackets.

Save the settings.

Following a successful payment (or selecting "Cash on delivery"), a customer will receive an email notification about the transaction.
