# Segments

Members can be grouped into Segments based on their data, transactional data, or loyalty program behavior. Segments can be configured by the Administrator in the Segments module or sourced from external 3rd party systems [through API](https://apidocs.openloyalty.io/). Users are added to Segments automatically after meeting the requirement of being in a given Segment. Thanks to this, you can automate the processes of loyalty program management and those related to personalizing loyalty offers and facilitating marketing communication.

## Segments module overview

The Segments module contains all the functions related to segmentation. In this section, you can create Segments to which your Members will be assigned, change the Segment configuration, or download a list of Members assigned to a Segment.\
This is one of the main functionalities of our service, based on which you can add e.g. marketing activities.
