Automatic Emails for Exclusive Rewards

Hi, I can't seem to find the answer to this, but is there a way to make an automatic email with a fixed code for users who purchase at a certain price point? I just opened up the option to get a "Premium Code" and I'm already getting emails asking where their code is because I've been asleep and unable to email them immediately after they buy. Or am I using this feature incorrectly?

Hey,

The "Exclusive Content" feature was more designed for things that you *need* human interaction to fulfill, like sending physical goodies to your buyers, drawing something they ask you to, personalized things like that.

I don't think we have a way of automatically e-mailing something when a reward is bought (although that sounds like a nice feature request, I opened an issue here to track our progress on this).

Another option for your use-case would've been a file with a "minimum price" (you'd have to upload another file in the Edit game page, and check "Set a different price for this file").


Unrelated, but I really encourage you to:

It'll let you only upload what's changed, and have your players always be up-to-date (the app download small patches automatically instead of re-downloading the whole thing!). You don't even need to zip it up first, it takes care of everything.

Hey, that worked! Thank you for answering so quickly. The minimum price for an addition file will work nicely for now. Great to see that emails might be a future feature!

Thank you for your help and tips. I'll look into Butler. :)
