FAQs

How can I create a spin-to-win campaign without capturing the email address?

The default configuration will require an email address be captured to spin the wheel in your gamified campaign. To spin the wheel without capturing any lead data, follow these steps:

  1. In the campaign builder, navigate to the Integrations view and confirm there are no Integrations present. If there are any, delete those now.
    Delete all existing Integrations from the campaign builder in OptinMonster.
  2. Next, return to the Design view of the campaign builder and select the email field in your design to edit it.
  3. Toggle the eye icon option off, so the field will be hidden.
    Hide the email field in OptinMonster.
  4. Next, add a dummy email address in the Default Value field.
    1. We Recommend: you use the following sample email address with the Smart Tag {{visit_timestamp}}, like this: youremail{{visit_timestamp}}@dummy.com
      By using a Smart Tag to capture the unique timestamp for each entry you’ll receive an entry for each submission indicating which coupon code was won, if you would like to know how often each coupon has been awarded.
  5. When you’re finished, Save the campaign.
  6. The wheel will now spin when the button is selected without requiring the visitor enter their email address.
Can I use a Custom HTML integration to spin the wheel?

No, at this time, the campaign’s wheel can only be triggered to spin when using one of our native Integrations.

Is the winning Coupon Code sent to my Email Service Provider?

The winning coupon code is sent along with the lead data to the following platforms when using our native integration:

If you don’t see your Email Service Provider listed and would like to request this addition, please reach out to our customer support team for assistance.

Can I add a Coupon Wheel separately to any other campaign or type?

It’s impossible to manually add a coupon wheel element to a campaign that doesn’t already contain one.

However, if you’d like to create a coupon wheel campaign of a different campaign type (for example, a Floating Bar), you can change the campaign type once you’ve created the coupon wheel campaign.

Can I completely remove sections of the wheel, so they are not visibly displayed?

At this time, it’s not possible to entirely remove sections of the wheel.

You can disable sections so they will not be landed on. They will still be a visible part of the design, so we recommend you customize the text and design accordingly.
