## **What Happens When You Pause a Campaign?**

* New users **won’t enter** the campaign while it’s paused.
* Users already mid-way in the drip will **not receive further messages** until the campaign is resumed.

## **Limitations to Keep in Mind**

* Pausing does not cancel existing delays. If resumed later, users may receive queued messages unless manually removed.
* For time-sensitive drips (e.g., delivery notifications), pausing may cause misalignment with real-world events.
