You're running a paid waitlist in Heartbeat and want to email those members before launch, here's what you need to know:
Can I email waitlist members directly from Heartbeat?
Not yet 👎
We don’t currently support sending custom emails to members while they’re still on the waitlist — but this is absolutely on our roadmap. We know it’s a key need and we’re working to bring it natively into Heartbeat.
âś… Recommended Workaround: Export & Email
Until in-app email tools are available, here’s how you can still communicate with your waitlist:
1. Navigate to Your Waitlist
Go to Settings → Offers
Selects the Waitlists tab
2. Click on Your Waitlist
You’ll see a list of everyone who signed up
This includes names, emails, and payment status
3. Add Emails Into Your Email Tool
Add emails into your tool of choice (Mailchimp, ConvertKit, Substack, etc.)
From there, you can send pre-launch updates, sneak peeks, or reminders
📬 After Launch
Once you click “Launch Now” on your waitlist:
Members are invited into your Heartbeat community
You can then message them directly via DMs or channels
You can also use Workflows to trigger in-app messages or automated emails based on activity
