About this template

Order Confirmation Email — Free HTML Ecommerce Template

Order Confirmation Email template: An ecommerce order confirmation email: a thank-you headline, order number and date, up to three line items with quantity and price, subtotal, shipping, tax and total, the shipping address, an estimated delivery date and an Outlook-safe "View order" button.

Order Confirmation Email is a free, responsive HTML order confirmation template for online stores, Shopify and WooCommerce shops, marketplaces and DTC brands. It thanks the customer, shows the order number and date, lists up to three items with details, quantity and price, adds subtotal, discount, shipping, tax and total, shows the payment method, the shipping address and an estimated delivery window, and links to the order with an Outlook-safe button.

The most-read email a store sends

Customers open order confirmations almost every time, often more than once while they wait for a parcel. A clear confirmation cuts "where is my order?" emails and builds trust right after someone has paid. This template puts the information people look for first, the order number, what they bought and when it arrives, at the top.

Line items that hold together

Each item has a name, a details line (size, colour, variant), quantity and price, set in a two-column table that keeps prices aligned on the right in every client, including Outlook. Leave an item name empty to hide that row. The order number and date sit in a soft summary box, and the shipping and delivery columns stack on phones.

Coded for real inboxes

Nested tables, inline styles, a VML button for Outlook on Windows, a dark palette for Apple Mail, iOS and Outlook.com, a hidden preheader and a plain-text version are all built in. The total is set in bold so it is easy to find.

Transactional, not marketing

Order confirmations are transactional email, so an unsubscribe link isn't required. Keep promotions out of the main content so it stays that way, and use the closing note for your returns policy and a "just reply" support line.

Edit the sample data in the browser, then replace it with your platform's variables (Shopify Liquid, Klaviyo, WooCommerce or your own code). Next in the flow, send a Payment Receipt, or welcome first-time buyers with the Welcome Email.

Extend with AI

Take This Email Further With AI

Give this prompt to an AI assistant to write your own version of the Order Confirmation Email email: draft ten subject lines and preheaders, adapt the copy for a customer segment, translate it, convert it to MJML or React Email, or write the plain-text version. Then paste the result back into the editor above to check it in desktop, mobile and dark mode.

Create a responsive HTML email: “Order Confirmation Email”, an e-commerce email.

Purpose: An ecommerce order confirmation email: a thank-you headline, order number and date, up to three line items with quantity and price, subtotal, shipping, tax and total, the shipping address, an estimated delivery date and an Outlook-safe "View order" button.

Inbox text:
- Subject line: “Order #10482 confirmed”
- Preheader (hidden preview text): “Thanks for your order! Here’s your receipt and what happens next.”

Content, top to bottom:
- Message & button
- Items (leave a name empty to hide it)
- Totals
- Shipping

Headline: “Thanks for your order, {{first_name}}!”. Main button: “View your order”.
Show products with an image, name and price in a grid that stacks on mobile, and make the button the most visible element.

Build it like a professional email developer:
- Table-based layout, 600px wide on desktop and fluid on mobile (width 100%, max-width 600px).
- Inline CSS on every element, with one small style block only for media queries and dark mode (prefers-color-scheme).
- A bulletproof, Outlook-safe call-to-action button (padded table cell with a VML fallback), never an image.
- Colours: brand and button #059669, button text #ffffff, page background #eef0f7. Web-safe font stack with a fallback after the brand font.
- Every image has alt text and explicit width and height. Use PNG icons, never SVG, because Gmail and Outlook drop them.
- Hidden preheader text, a plain-text version, and a legal footer with the postal address, the reason the person is receiving it and a working unsubscribe link.

Finish with a short checklist of what to test in Gmail, Outlook for Windows, Apple Mail, mobile and dark mode.

Why use it

Why Use the Order Confirmation Email Template

📦
Fewer "where's my order?" emails
Showing the order number, items and delivery window up front answers the questions customers would otherwise email you.
🧾
Totals that line up
Table-based line items keep prices aligned in Gmail, Apple Mail and Outlook, so the order looks as professional as your store.
◐
Your brand, not the platform's
Replace the plain default confirmation from your store platform with one in your colours, fonts and tone.
