A marketing communication service for sending segmented email, SMS, push notifications, and voice messages

What It Does

Amazon Pinpoint is a marketing communication service that delivers email, SMS, push notifications, and voice messages to user segments. It provides segmentation based on user attributes and behavior, scheduled campaign delivery, A/B testing, and delivery analytics.

Use Cases

Email delivery for marketing campaigns, push notifications to boost app engagement, SMS-based authentication codes, and trigger-based messaging driven by user behavior.

Everyday Analogy

Think of a direct mail distribution center. Based on your customer list (segment), it delivers the right message at the right time and tracks open rates and response rates.

What Is Pinpoint?

Amazon Pinpoint is a multi-channel marketing communication service. While SES specializes in email delivery, Pinpoint integrates email, SMS, push notifications, and voice into one service with segmentation, campaign management, and analytics. The Journeys feature lets you build multi-step communication flows that respond to user behavior.

Segments and Campaigns

A segment is a group of target users. You define segments by attributes (age, region), behavior (app usage frequency, purchase history), and custom attributes. A campaign configures message delivery to a segment, specifying delivery time, message content, and A/B test variations. After delivery, you can analyze open rates, click-through rates, and conversion rates. For hands-on guidance on implementing segments and campaigns, see specialized books on Amazon.

Getting Started

Create a project in the Pinpoint console and enable the email or SMS channel. Import endpoints (user contact information) to create segments, then configure and send campaigns. The email channel integrates with SES, so you'll need to move SES out of sandbox mode.

Things to Watch Out For

  • Email delivery follows SES pricing. SMS costs vary significantly by destination country
  • Moving email out of sandbox mode (production access) requires an application to AWS
