E-mail drafting and layout

Learn how to create, design, and send professional emails in Momice. Discover how to use widgets for text, images, buttons, QR codes, and custom HTML/CSS, duplicate sent emails, and prevent common formatting issues.

With Momice, you can create and send professional emails to the contacts you imported for your event.

New emails are automatically saved under "Drafts" until you send them. With different widgets, you can style your email to match your organization or event.

Create a new email

  1. Open the Mail Module.

  2. Click "New email".

  3. Add the content and widgets you want to use.

  4. Adjust colors, fonts, and other styling.

  5. Click "Save" to save your changes as a draft.

You can add text, images, buttons, text boxes, horizontal lines, a QR code, and custom HTML / CSS.

Add images

Use the Image widget to add one or more images or logos.

You can:

  • set the spacing around an image from 0 to 50 px

  • make an image clickable by adding a hyperlink

  • link to your event website, YouTube, LinkedIn, or another page

Please note: If you still see the old version after replacing an image, it may be stored in your browser or email client cache. Rename the new image file before uploading it again.

Add and format text

Use the Text widget to add text to your email.

You can:

  • adjust fonts, colors, and text styles

  • add links

  • insert fixed elements such as an agenda, registration link, unsubscribe link, event website, registration code, or ticket

  • use imported fields to personalize your communication

Examples of fields include:

  • {voornaam}

  • {achternaam}

  • {event}

The {event} field automatically displays the name of the event. You can use this field in text or in a hyperlink.

Tip: Only use personalization fields if the corresponding information has been entered for your invitees.

Add extra spacing between paragraphs

Want to add more space between two blocks of text?

  1. Place the cursor at the end of the first paragraph.

  2. Press Shift + Enter to add a line break.

  3. Add another line break if needed.

Add a text box or footer

The Text Box widget works in much the same way as the regular Text widget, but it uses a different background color.

This widget is useful for:

  • a footer

  • contact details

  • practical information

  • important notices

You can use the same text options, fixed elements, and personalization fields as in the Text widget.

Add a button

Use the Button widget to add a clear call to action, for example:

  • Register now

  • View the program

  • Buy your ticket

You can adjust the button text, colors, and corner radius. You can use HEX codes for colors.

Please note: Multiple buttons are always displayed below each other in the email. It is not possible to place buttons side by side.

Add a horizontal line

Use the Horizontal Line widget to visually separate different sections of your email.

You can adjust the style, color, and thickness of the line. Use horizontal lines sparingly to keep your email clear and easy to scan.

Add a check-in QR code

Use the Check-in QR Code widget to add a personal QR code to your email.

Each invitee receives a unique QR code. During the event, you can scan this QR code with the check-in app to mark the invitee as present.

This makes it easy to track:

  • who attended

  • who did not attend

  • your event's no-show rate

Please note: The QR code is unique to each invitee. Only use this widget in emails sent to individual contacts.

Add custom HTML or CSS

Use the Custom HTML / CSS widget to add your own HTML code to the email. This gives you more control over the email design beyond the standard options in the email editor.

This widget is intended for users with technical knowledge of HTML and CSS.

Please note: Momice does not provide HTML or CSS code and does not offer support for writing, editing, or troubleshooting custom code.

Make sure someone within your organization has sufficient knowledge of HTML and CSS before using this widget.

Remove hidden formatting from text

Text copied directly from programs such as Microsoft Word may contain hidden formatting. This can cause text to appear differently than expected in Momice.

To remove hidden formatting:

  1. Copy the text.

  2. Paste it into a plain-text editor, such as Notepad on Windows or TextEdit on Mac.

  3. In TextEdit, select "Make Plain Text" if needed.

  4. Copy the text again.

  5. Paste it into Momice.

  6. Re-add any hyperlinks.

Tip: Whenever possible, work with plain text when preparing content for your event. This helps prevent unexpected formatting.

Duplicate a sent email

Want to reuse an existing email? You do not need to recreate it from scratch.

  1. Open the Mail Module.

  2. Go to the "Sent items" tab.

  3. Click the arrow icon next to the email you want to duplicate.

  4. Click "Continue to edit email".

  5. The email is saved as a new version under "Drafts".

  6. Edit the email and send it when it is ready.

The previously sent email remains unchanged.

Email display across different email clients

Momice supports the most commonly used business email clients. The exact appearance of an email may vary depending on the email client, device, or organization-level settings.

As a result, images or other design elements may appear differently for some recipients.
