BayEngage is TargetBay’s email and SMS marketing software for ecommerce stores. It brings together email campaigns, signup forms, audience segmentation, A/B testing, automation workflows, and campaign reports. SMS tools cover campaigns, one-to-one conversations, pre-built message ideas, consent keywords, and automations triggered by events. A segment builder combines rules and filters, and segments can update in real time. TargetBay lists Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Adobe Commerce (Magento), and Canva in its app and integration ecosystem. APIs can sync email contacts and suppression lists and connect marketing workflows and automations. BayEngage offers a free 14-day trial and free-plan listings with different limits: one describes 250 subscribers and 500 emails per month, while the Forever free plan describes 250 subscribers and 2,500 emails per month, 380 free email templates, advanced segmentation, A/B testing, support, and email and SMS automation. The pricing information also advertises access to 10,000+ templates. Monthly pricing is based on email send volume; SMS credits are charged separately. Unused sends do not roll over, and volumes above 2.5 million monthly sends require a custom plan.
