1. To get started, navigate to your Campaigns page and select "+ Create Campaign":

2. Choose the Touch details that you would like to apply within the gift selection. For eGifts, you will use "Sendoso Choice" and then select your desired eGifts on the next page. 

3. Enter in the Touch name and details, then select 'Automated' to set this up as a triggered Touch: 

4. Scroll down and select your Funding Source under "Source of Funds", then under "Integration" click "Add Integration".

5. Eloqua eGift URL campaign require an Eloqua user (Customer Administrator access at the minimum) to be synced. 

6. Finally, all you need to do is Copy/Paste your Eloqua eGift link into any Eloqua email template. When the link is clicked it will dynamically generate the specified eGift link and link the recipient to the Sendoso landing page to redeem their eGift card. (The link does not work when you copy and paste it in your URL, only through a live email in Eloqua.)

That's it!
