Custom fields can be used to store additional contact information such as a subscriber's address, city, country, or phone number. They're also great for collecting unique information about subscribers to help you plan more relevant and personalized email content.
Every subscriber list you create has two default fields: Full Name and Email Address. Any extra fields added to a list are called custom fields. You can add up to 50 custom fields to each list.
Custom fields types
-
Text : No restriction
-
Numeric : Only numbers
- Date : Format is YYYY/MM/DD (ISO 8061)
Field type data validation is done on subscription, importation and contact update.
