Frequency Capping

The Frequency Capping feature in the Campaign Configuration section helps you manage how often your audience receives communications, preventing overcommunication and improving user engagement.

Note

Frequency capping is enforced at the contact level, but delivery may occur through multiple devices associated with that contact. For instance, if a contact has multiple devices (e.g., phone, tablet), the system may deliver one message to each device. As a result, it may appear that more than one message has been sent to the same contact, even though the rule (e.g., 1 Daily Push) is in effect.


Rules for Send Tags

Summarizes capping rules for specific audience tags. Create a rule by selecting a timeframe, communication type, and limit for the chosen tag. Use the Tag Selector Table to pick tags and click Add to save.

Tag Selector Table (Options):Provides a list of available tags that can be selected when adding new rules, allowing users to apply frequency capping to specific segments of their audience.


Frequency Capping Exclusion

The Frequency Capping Exclusion feature introduces a new way to manage exceptions to your send limits. Located under the Audience Settings section, this enhancement allows you to define specific contact groups that are not subject to frequency capping rules, ensuring that high-priority users can receive uninterrupted communications.

Frequency Capping helps control how many times a contact can receive messages within a certain timeframe (e.g., daily or weekly). With this new feature, you can now exclude certain users from these limits by specifying them using a contact key.

This is particularly useful for critical operational communications, or specific business use cases where messaging limits should not apply.
