Landing pages made simple: How to build your first Braze Landing Page

When you want to deliver a customized web experience, one of the best ways to make that happen is by leveraging landing pages. These standalone web pages are designed to drive engagement across the customer lifecycle. But despite the name, landing pages are so much more than a destination—in fact, they play a key role in building a connected, end-to-end customer journey. They’re simple to build, easy to customize, and support a wide range of goals, from growing your opted-in audience to collecting real-time feedback.

Intrigued? Let's explore some smart, creative ways to use landing pages to turn everyday interactions into meaningful growth. But first, a quick refresher on how to build a landing page in Braze.

How to create a landing page

1. Connect your custom domain or subdomain (optional)

By default, landing pages are hosted on a Braze domain: ldpgs.com. Give your landing pages a fully branded URL instead by connecting a custom domain in your Workplace Settings.

2. Design your landing page

Create a new landing page from the Messaging tab in your Braze dashboard. Open the drag-and-drop editor to start building, or jumpstart the process with a pre-designed template.

Add rows, blocks, and form fields, then customize your page with your brand colors, fonts, and media assets. To take the experience a step further, you can layer in Liquid personalization to dynamically tailor headlines, greetings, or CTAs based on who’s visiting to make every page feel more relevant and personal.

3. Add custom form fields

Landing pages make it easy to collect user data and map it directly to standard or custom attributes in Braze. Supported field types include email and phone number capture, text inputs, dropdowns, and checkboxes.

Pro tip: If your page includes a form, create and link to a confirmation page as a best practice.

4. Preview and publish

Preview your landing page across mobile, tablet, and web devices to ensure everything looks just right. Once you’re ready, publish your page!

5. Drive traffic to your landing pages

Landing pages only make an impact if people visit them—and Braze gives you powerful ways to drive both known and new audiences to your pages.

To reach existing customers, simply add your landing page URL to any message by clicking “Add Personalization” in any Braze message composer. When the link is sent via a Braze channel, you can personalize the landing page with known customer data and automatically capture any submitted data directly in the user’s profile.

Take Sandwich Emperor, a fictional quick-service restaurant brand trying to grow its loyalty program. After a customer places an order, they send an SMS with a link to a loyalty sign-up landing page, teasing exclusive perks and inviting customers to learn more. While the landing page seals the deal, the real momentum begins in the SMS: a quick nudge that builds anticipation, spotlights rewards, and sets the stage for deeper engagement.

Landing pages can also attract and convert new customers from non-Braze channels. Website banners, social media posts, and even in-store QR codes can all direct first-time visitors to your landing page, turning every interaction into an opportunity to introduce your brand, capture sign-ups, and start building loyalty.

6. Update customer profiles

When a user submits a form on your landing page, their information automatically updates the related fields in their Braze user profile. If you send the URL through a non-Braze channel, a new user profile is created upon submission.

7. Retarget customers

You can immediately move users into relevant campaigns or journeys by retargeting on the “Submitted Form” filter. For example, new SMS subscribers can receive a confirmation text as soon as they complete the sign-up form.

8. Monitor results

Track performance across views, clicks, and form submissions, then use these insights to optimize and improve over time.

Popular landing page use cases

Once you’ve mastered the art of creating landing pages and driving traffic to them, the next step is making every page count. Let’s take a look at a few examples that show how simple clicks can turn into meaningful engagement and measurable growth.

1. Growing email opt-ins

Kitchenerie, a (fictional) retail kitchenware brand, wanted to grow its email list, but not with a generic sign-up form. Using a Braze Landing Page, the team crafted an email capture experience that clearly highlighted the benefits of subscribing: early access to new products, decorating tips, and more. By making the value immediately clear, signing up felt like a natural next step.

2. Building an SMS audience

Steppington, a fictional fitness subscription service, set out to grow its SMS audience in a way that felt genuinely rewarding. Visitors opt in through a quick landing page form, and immediately receive a follow-up text with a special thank-you gift: a free month of membership. What could’ve been a basic opt-in became a moment of instant value, setting the tone of the relationship from the very first interaction.

3. Driving memberships and subscriptions

For brands focused on membership growth, timing can be just as important as the message itself. Sandwich Emperor triggers a personalized SMS with a landing page link immediately after a high-value action, like placing an order. Using Liquid personalization, the page greets each customer by name and references recent purchases, making the invitation feel timely, relevant, and rewarding.

4. Collecting real-time feedback

Listening to your audience is easier when feedback feels contextual. Fictional streaming brand MovieCanon sends a personalized SMS after a subscriber binge-watches a series, inviting them to share feedback on a landing page. The landing page greets viewers by name and references the show they just watched, creating a seamless, thoughtful experience that leads to richer insights for MovieCanon, and viewers who feel heard and valued.

5. Spotlighting new products and offers

When Pyrite Financial launched a new Rewards Card, they wanted the promotion to feel like an experience, not just an announcement. Their landing page showcases a bold incentive: “Earn 10,000 bonus points!”, then clearly walks visitors through the benefits and application process. By giving the offer its own stage, Pyrite makes the value instantly clear and easy to act on.

6. Encouraging app downloads

Landing pages also help bridge the gap between interest and action. Fictional healthcare brand Siege Valley Health uses a landing page to make the value of their app unmistakably clear: same-day care, appointments with providers who take your insurance, and a streamlined booking experience. With Liquid personalization, visitors see relevant providers and care options based on their location, turning a simple download prompt into a compelling next step.
