The Opt In Email module allows administrators to create 'Opt In' categories and distribution lists. Users of the system can easily select which distribution list(s) they would like to Opt In/Out of. Maintenance and reports are available for administrators, and an enhanced version of 'Newsletters' is included so you can easily distribute to your Opt In lists.

  • Settings for each Opt In module can select display all of the Opt In Categories, or a selected few (Nice if you like to have different areas of your site(s) have different opt in categories)
  • Settings to also optionally collect the users First/Last name besides their email address
  • Settings to optionally verify the users email address after Opting In.
  • Allow existing users to manage their Opt In settings. After they enter their email address, it will send them a link to the system

    Enhancements In V2.0...
