How to add video to your emails?

Most email clients block interactive videos. Discover the best practice using clickable image thumbnails.

Email Video Embedding Limits

Major email providers (like Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo) block direct video embeds (`

How to Embed a Video in Your Templates:

  1. Go to Settings > Emails in your NOBEDS dashboard.
  2. Take a screenshot of your video player (preferably showing a play icon overlay) to act as a preview thumbnail.
  3. Upload the image thumbnail to a public image hosting site or your own server and get the direct image URL.
  4. Open the HTML editor of the email template you want to modify (e.g. Self Check-in confirmation email).
  5. Insert the hyperlinked image code:
    <a href="YOUR_YOUTUBE_OR_VIMEO_URL"><img src="YOUR_IMAGE_THUMBNAIL_URL" alt="Watch Video" width="560" /></a>.
    This displays the preview image, which opens the actual video when clicked.
