Definition
Email geo-targeting is using a recipient's location to tailor content, sending or offers, such as localizing language, showing region-specific products, or referencing local events. Relevance from location improves engagement.
Location can come from signup data, geolocation of IP, or profile preferences. A key application is timezone-aware sending, so emails arrive at a good local time for each recipient, and localizing content to local language and dates.
Use geo data carefully and accurately. Segment by reliable location, localize currency, dates and offers, and respect the consent and privacy rules attached to location data in your audience's regions.
