Why Measure NPS?

Today, you know how much you're selling. NPS tells you who will come back.

A bad experience almost never results in a complaint: the customer simply stops buying. Asking at the right moment gives you time to resolve the issue and shows you who is already ready to recommend you.

Within the email, with a single click

The survey is included in the body of the email. Customers can rate their experience without having to open any forms or leave the email, which is why more of them respond.

Every answer has a name

It's not just a random average: you know which customer gave which response, and you can filter them as promoters, passives, or detractors.

In your campaigns and your flows

The survey is sent out as part of a one-time campaign or as a step in an automated workflow, and the results appear in each mailing.

Capabilities

From question to action— all in one place

Five ways to measure your customers' experience without leaving the platform.

The NPS Block

Drag the survey into your email and set it up in seconds

In the email editor, you add the NPS Survey block just like any other content. You write the question, choose the scale, and customize the text and colors to match your brand. The customer responds with a single click, right from the email.

  • A numerical scale from 0 to 10, the NPS standard
  • A 5-point rating scale, which is easier to respond to
  • Editable labels and colors for each shipment

When to Ask

In a campaign or as a step in a workflow

You can send the survey to an audience as part of a one-time campaign, or add it as an email within a workflow so that it sends automatically at the right time—for example, when an order is marked as delivered. And since it’s not a promotional email, you decide whether or not to include purchases in the attribution.

  • Campaigns: Measurement of Your Entire Base or a Specific Audience
  • Flows: The survey as an additional step after each purchase
  • Attribution by channel: Turn this off so the survey doesn't inflate your sales

Response by customer

You know what each customer said—not just the average

In the customer list for each mailing, you can see each person's response, their category, and the date. You can filter by promoters, passives, detractors, or those who didn't respond, so you know exactly who to contact.

  • Advocates, passive supporters, and detractors identified one by one
  • Filters by category or response status
  • Who didn't answer, so I asked again

The results appear in the same step of the workflow

When a survey is launched from a workflow, the email node displays its own summary: NPS, distribution, and response rate. With a single click, you can view the full details, including the response chart and the list of customers.

  • Summary at the node in the flow analysis view
  • Complete details, including a chart and list of clients
  • Without mixing the survey with sales figures

Frequently Asked Questions

NPS Surveys in Data4Sales

Questions that marketing, e-commerce, and customer service teams often ask us before they start tracking metrics.

What is an NPS survey?

NPS (Net Promoter Score) is a loyalty metric based on a single question: On a scale of 0 to 10, how likely are you to recommend this brand to a friend? At Data4Sales, the survey is included in the email: customers respond with a single click, and you can see each person’s response.

How is NPS calculated?

Responses are grouped into promoters (9 and 10), passives (7 and 8), and detractors (0 to 6). The NPS is the percentage of promoters minus the percentage of detractors, which is why it ranges from -100 to 100. For example, with 62% promoters and 14% detractors, the NPS is 48.

How do you send the survey?

By email. The survey is a block in the email editor: you send it as part of a campaign to an audience or from an email within a flow, using a scale from 0 to 10 or a 5-point scale. The customer responds with a single click, without leaving the email.

When is the best time to send the NPS survey?

As close as possible to the experience you want to measure: a few days after an online purchase or when the order is marked as delivered. For measuring brand loyalty, once a quarter is sufficient. In all cases, it’s best to limit the frequency per customer so as not to ask them too many questions.

What about the answers?

In the results for each campaign or flow node, you can see the NPS, the distribution of promoters, passives, and detractors, the response rate, and the average score. In the customer list, you can see how each person responded and filter by category or by those who did not respond. Customers who did not respond are not included in the NPS calculation.

What is a good NPS in retail and e-commerce?

It depends on the source and the industry. Survicate’s 2025 benchmark puts the median for retail and e-commerce at 55, while other sources cite a range of 40 to 50. Rather than comparing yourself to a market figure, it’s more useful to track your own NPS over time and across channels—for example, e-commerce versus brick-and-mortar stores.

How is it different from a survey tool?

A survey tool saves responses in a separate report. In Data4Sales, surveys are launched directly from the same campaigns and flows you already use, and each response is linked to the customer who submitted it—the same customer whose purchase history and campaign data are already on file. Measurement and action take place on the same platform.

Stop just finding out about things after the customer has already left, and start taking action on every response

We'll show you how to measure your customers' experience and what to do with each rating, using your business data.
