How to enable and disable tracking in Mailcamp campaigns

Mailcamp lets you control tracking for each campaign during the setup step. You can enable or disable open tracking, click tracking, and choose whether to use a custom tracking domain when that option is available in your account.

What tracking means in Mailcamp

  • Open tracking records when a recipient opens the email.
  • Click tracking records when a recipient clicks a tracked link in the email.
  • A tracking domain can customize the tracking links used in the campaign for branding and deliverability purposes.

Where to change tracking settings

  • Open the campaign you want to edit.
  • Go to the Setup step.
  • Look for the tracking options in the campaign setup form.

How to enable or disable tracking

  • Turn Track opens on or off depending on whether you want open reporting.
  • Turn Track clicks on or off depending on whether you want click reporting.
  • Save the campaign setup after changing the settings.

Using a custom tracking domain

  • If your account supports it, you can enable a custom tracking domain for the campaign.
  • Select the verified tracking domain you want to use.
  • This helps customize tracked links and can support your branding and deliverability setup.

What to keep in mind

  • If tracking is disabled, the related engagement data will not be collected for that campaign.
  • Tracking settings should be reviewed before sending, because they affect how Mailcamp measures campaign performance.
  • Custom tracking domains must be verified before they can be used reliably.

Special note for plain-text campaigns

  • Plain-text campaigns may show a warning about open and click tracking behavior.
  • Review those notes carefully if you are sending a plain-text campaign instead of an HTML one.

Helpful tip

If you rely on reports to measure campaign performance, keep tracking enabled. If you have a specific reason not to track opens or clicks, disable only the setting you do not need.
