Frequently Asked Questions

Can video play directly inside emails?
Most email clients don't support embedded video playback. We recommend using animated GIFs for auto-play motion or static thumbnails that link to hosted video pages. GIFs provide motion without requiring users to click.
What file size should email videos/GIFs be?
We optimize GIFs to under 1MB for reliable delivery across email clients. For video thumbnails, images are under 200KB. Larger file sizes can impact deliverability and load times.
How do I host videos for email click-through?
August Ads provides hosted video landing pages, or you can embed videos on your own site. Use our thumbnail images in Klaviyo with links to your preferred hosting location.
Can I personalize videos with customer names?
Yes, for VIP or high-value segments. Generate personalized videos addressing customers by name for special occasions, loyalty rewards, or exclusive offers.
Does video in email affect deliverability?
Optimized GIFs and thumbnails shouldn't impact deliverability when properly sized. Avoid excessive file sizes and maintain good email practices. Our exports are optimized for email-safe delivery.
