Along with other automated messages like welcome emails, thank you emails, or confirmation emails, an order confirmation email is considered to be not just a formality or a tool to inform your customers about the status of their order. It is also a great opportunity to build a rapport with your clients. Personalization is a great technique that can be used to make your order confirmation email look and feel friendlier.  

When to Send Your Order Confirmation Email

This email should be issued when a customer places an order on your company’s website. With this email, you confirm that you have accepted a client's order.

Email itself remains one of the most effective tools used by businesses to maintain a healthy and lucrative pattern of communication with their clients and, most importantly, their returning customers. Order confirmation emails are no exception. They can be used both to serve as a tool to provide your customers with vital information concerning their order and to lay the ground for possible future interaction with your brand.

It is best to keep a balance between brevity and friendliness. Here is a list of the essential transaction details to be included in an order confirmation email.  

• order number
• an item (product or service)
• quantity
• price (per item)
• billing/shipping address
• payment methods

Order Confirmation Page

An order confirmation page is a page within a company’s website, often referred to as ‘shopping cart,’ where customers can see the list of items/services they opted to buy from the company. 

A typical order confirmation page includes a list of items, their quantity, the price per item, shipping options, and cost as well as the total cost of the order.
