This guide details how to effectively implement these animations within your transactional emails, enhancing user engagement and delivering impactful messages to stakeholders while maintaining compliance with relevant regulations.

Analyze open and click-through rates to understand the impact on engagement.

Setting up HTML animations in transactional emails can significantly enhance user engagement and communication effectiveness.
