Audience List Cleaning with the "Clean My List" Feature

Audience List Cleaning with the "Clean My List" Feature

Keeping your audience list clean is essential for improving email deliverability, engagement rates, and overall campaign performance. Our Audience List Cleaning feature makes this easy by automatically identifying contacts that may be hurting your results. Contacts that fail to meet engagement or validity criteria will be marked as Inactive, while the rest will remain Subscribed.


How it works

This paid service scans your selected audience and identifies inactive, low-engagement, and suspicious email contacts based on activity and quality checks.
  1. Safe contacts: Remain Subscribed.
  2. Risky contacts: Contacts that fail to meet engagement or validity criteria will be automatically marked as Inactive.
  3. Processing time: Cleaning begins immediately after payment and typically finishes within 24 hour

How to clean your list

1. Import Your Audience List

  • Upload the required audience list from your CSV file into the system.

  • After the import is complete, navigate to See Results to review your uploaded contacts.




b. Under the Selected  Audience and click the Clean My List button located near the top.



2. Review Pricing & Payment.

A pop-up will appear confirming the number of emails within your Audience and the cost


• Note: Pricing is dynamic based on Audience size; as your Audience size increases, CPM decreases.

• Click Proceed to Payment to be redirected to the Shopify payment page to Approve the charge.



3. Processing.

Once the payment is processed, the cleaning process starts automatically.
  1. A small broom  icon will appear next to the audience to indicate that cleaning is in progress.

4. Completion.

When the cleaning is finished:
  1. You will receive a notification email.
  2. The icon   will update to show that the cleaning is complete.
  3. Contacts that failed verification are automatically marked as Inactive to prevent accidental emails.
