Why Use Polls in Emails?

Polls turn your emails into two-way conversations. They give subscribers a reason to engage and give you real feedback, right from the inbox.

  • Boost Email Engagement

  • Get Instant Audience Insights

  • Build Stronger Relationships

  • Track Trends Over Time

Multiple Choice Polls

Ask your subscribers to choose from a list of as many options as you like. Multiple choice polls work well for product research, gauging preferences, and collecting structured feedback, all without sending anyone outside their inbox.

Example multiple choice poll asking "Vote for your favourite" with three product options, vote counts, and live percentage results

Yes / No Votes

Simple and effective, Yes/No polls are great for quick feedback and engagement. Ask a single clear question, like "Did you enjoy our last webinar?" or "Should we bring back free shipping?", and get an instant read on what your audience thinks.

Example Yes/No poll asking "Was this email helpful?" with a green Yes button and a red No button

NPS Feedback (0–10)

Run a true Net Promoter Score survey right from the inbox. Ask a question like "How likely are you to recommend us to a friend or colleague?" and let subscribers respond on a 0–10 scale. It’s ideal for benchmarking loyalty and tracking NPS over time.

Example NPS poll asking "How likely are you to recommend us?" with a 0 to 10 response scale

Scale / Rate (1–5)

Looking for more nuanced feedback? Rating scales let you ask questions like "How would you rate your experience?" or "How likely are you to recommend us?" and capture a range of sentiment, not just a binary answer. Use numbers, stars, emojis, or any icon set you like to match your brand.

Example rating poll asking "How did this make you feel?" with five emoji response options

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a developer or any code to set up a poll?

No developer or coding required. You build your poll in Sendtric’s visual editor, copy the generated code, and paste it into your email template. No installation or technical knowledge is required.

Will the poll widget work with my ESP or email builder?

Yes. Sendtric’s polls work in any ESP or email builder that supports HTML, including Mailchimp, Klaviyo, HubSpot, Salesforce Marketing Cloud, SendGrid, ActiveCampaign, Brevo, Braze, Iterable, GetResponse, and 100+ other platforms.

Can each answer option redirect somewhere different?

Yes. Every answer option can have its own custom redirect URL, so a "Yes" vote can lead to one page and a "No" vote to another, or you can use Sendtric’s built-in, customizable thank you page instead.

Can I see who answered what?

Yes, with Unique ID tracking enabled. Replace the {{UID}} placeholders in your poll’s code with a unique variable from your ESP (or your own unique identifier), and Sendtric will generate a response report matching each answer back to that ID.

What does the Live Results element show?

The Live Results element displays real-time voting results directly inside the poll itself, so subscribers can see how others are responding as votes come in.

Can I get a report of my poll results?

Yes. Your Sendtric dashboard gives you a visual chart report of how each option performed, plus a downloadable CSV report of individual answers whenever you need deeper analysis.
