Adding a newsletter signup to your online store lets you collect customer email addresses that you can use for email marketing campaigns. You can learn more about email marketing on the Shopify blog.
Although you can't email customers through your Shopify admin, you can use the Shopify SendinBlue app to send promotional emails. Email marketing apps usually work by syncing your Shopify customer data with a third-party email marketing service like SendinBlue.
