Introduction

Aurora provides a range of Mailing List opt-ins and outs in addition to some 3rd party mailing list subscription services. To allow customers and administrators to unsubscribe from these services completely, Aurora also provides support for email addresses to be unsubscribed completely from all supported mailing lists and 3rd parties.

You are able to:

  • Allow customers to un-subscribe (opt-out) of your mailing lists and newsletters with nothing more then their email address for reference.
  • Unsubscribe (opt-out) your customers from the Aurora Back-end.

This un-subscription service currently supports the following 3rd party integrations and will notify them when email addresses are unsubscribed in Aurora:
