Email Not Displaying Correctly in Gmail: Fix Button Clickable Area Collapse for Campaign Monitor for eCommerce Campaigns

In eCommerce email marketing, rendering issues directly tank conversion rates and cart recoveries. Product grids, checkout CTAs, and discount banners must display flawlessly to prevent purchase drop-offs. Below is the targeted integration guide to fix Button Clickable Area Collapse inside Gmail App (iOS & Android) templates when using Campaign Monitor.

Technical Breakdown

Gmail App (iOS & Android) uses the WebKit / Blink which lacks support for standard rendering rules. This causes Button Clickable Area Collapse elements to break or collapse when rendering templates.

Campaign Monitor Behaviors

Campaign Monitor wraps custom blocks in dynamic edit tags, which can break the column flow inside Outlook. Ensuring correct class names is essential. Double-check your dynamic product feed blocks. When injecting product loops from your catalog, ensure width sizes are explicitly handled to keep columns from overlapping.

Remediation Code Block

To maintain button structural size and clickable areas, apply paddings to the parent table cell (td tag) rather than the link element, and format the anchor tag style to display: block. In your Campaign Monitor campaign manager, make sure you configure your links to run via [unsubscribe].

<table role="presentation" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse:collapse;">
  <tr>
    <td bgcolor="#6366F1" style="padding: 10px 20px; border-radius: 4px;">
      <a href="[unsubscribe]" style="color: #ffffff; text-decoration: none; display: block; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: bold;">Click Here</a>
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>
