  2. Select Broadcast from the Send tab options.
  3. Select the email you want to add a GIF to.
  4. Click Edit to open the email editor.
  5. Click on the image block where you want to insert the GIF.
  6. Under the Image option, select Replace.
  7. Upload your GIF from your computer.
  8. Confirm the GIF appears in the email and will play when the email is opened.
  9. Click Save to apply your changes.

📌 Why this matters

Adding a GIF to a ConvertKit broadcast email is one of the fastest ways to increase subscriber engagement and click-through rates without writing a single line of code. Animated GIFs capture attention in a crowded inbox, making your email marketing content more dynamic and memorable. ConvertKit's built-in image replace feature makes it simple to swap static images for animated GIFs in any broadcast, keeping your workflow efficient. For creators and marketers who rely on email to drive conversions, animated visuals in broadcasts can meaningfully improve open-to-click performance.
