Add GIFs to Emails
GIFs add movement and interest to your emails. You add them like any other image, from the media library.
GIFs used in the email builder should be 10 MB or smaller.
Add a GIF as an image
- Go to Marketing → Emails and open or create an email or template.
- Open it in the editor.
- Drag an Image element into the email.
- Click the image, then the edit (pencil) icon.
- Upload a GIF or choose one from the media library.
- Save.
You can also use a GIF as a section background where background images are supported.
Tips
- Keep GIFs small, ideally under 1 MB, so emails load quickly.
- Put your key message in the first frame. Some email apps, such as older Outlook versions, only show the first frame.
- Add alt text so people who can't see the image still get the message.
