Overview
With MoEngage, you can localize your campaign messages to engage users across different languages, cultures, and regions. Localization helps you tailor your communication to meet specific linguistic and cultural expectations, which drives better engagement.
Why Use Campaign Locales?
Locales allow you to adapt your message within a single campaign. This helps you deliver relevant content to different audience segments based on their language, geographic location, age, or gender. For example, you can use multiple locales within one campaign to communicate with users globally for a product release or seasonal sale.
Using locales lets you:
- Deliver the same message to users in multiple languages.
- Send different messages tailored to various geographic regions.
- Adapt your communication for specific age groups or genders.
