YITH SMS Notifications

Send SMS notifications to improve your customers’ shopping experience 

Sending SMS notifications to your e-commerce customers to update them on the status of their orders can greatly improve their shopping experience. SMS is a fast and effective tool with a very high open rate, ensuring that customers receive immediate communication every step of the way, from order confirmation to shipping and delivery.

YITH WooCommerce SMS Notifications is an easy-to-configure tool that allows you to automate the sending of text messages to admins and customers with every order status update. This type of communication not only reassures customers by reducing doubts or uncertainties but also helps build their trust in your store.

Because SMS messages are direct and personal, they reach customers wherever they are, without requiring them to log in to an account or check their email.

Automating the sending of order status notifications can also significantly reduce the number of customer service inquiries, optimizing your company’s time and resources. 

With our plugin, you can have SMS messages sent to the store administrator: receiving notifications about new or refunded orders, and even about orders being shipped allows admins to constantly monitor e-commerce activity, even when they are not in front of the computer and cannot access the admin panel.

Select the service to use for sending SMS messages

The plugin allows you to choose from more than 40 SMS services. The list of services is constantly updated, so if you can’t find the one you use, let us know: we’ll do our best to add it in the next plugin update!

SMS service selection
Sender's number and ID

Set up the sender number and name

Set a phone number (even if fictitious) and a name for the SMS sender. Remember to use your brand name so your customers can trust the notifications.

Decide if you want to display a checkbox on the Checkout page to send SMS

Choose whether you want to send SMS notifications to all customers who place an order in your store or display a checkbox to ask for permission during the checkout process. If you do so, SMS notifications will only be sent to users who have explicitly agreed to receive them. 

SMS notifications checkbox on Checkout page
Choose the order status to send SMS

Choose which order statuses you want to send SMS notifications for to your customers

The plugin displays all order statuses (including custom ones) in a table, allowing you to choose which statuses to enable SMS notifications for. To give you an example, you can disable SMS for orders with the “Pending” and “Failed” statuses and enable them only for those with the “Processing” and “Shipped” statuses.

Send ad hoc SMS from the order details 

In addition to automatic SMS sending related to order status updates, you can send additional notifications to specific customers from the order details page. Thanks to this advanced feature, you can send any type of notification. For example, when the order is shipped, you can send an SMS asking the customer to leave a product review, notify them of unsuccessful delivery attempts, or even send a discount coupon to encourage another purchase in your store. 

Send SMS from order details
SMS for the admin

Choose which SMS to send to the store admin 

The plugin is not only a valuable tool to improve the shopping experience for customers but also for e-commerce management. You can enable SMS notifications to be sent to the admin on any status change, ensuring they are always updated on what is happening in the shop, such as new orders, shipped orders, refunded orders, etc.

Customize SMS texts 

Personalize the text of all SMS communications sent through the plugin to ensure it aligns with your brand.  

Using available placeholders, you can replace standard messages with more engaging ones. For example, instead of “Your order #114 has been shipped“, you could send “Hi John, your order #114 has been taken by the courier and it’s on its way to you. Thank you for your trust! – Cocunat Shop.
 

Customize SMS
URLs shortening

Optimize SMS content by shortening URLs

The 160-character limit for SMS can be restrictive when you want to add personality to your messages. Luckily, the plugin allows you to automatically shorten URLs using services like Bitly or TinyURL, optimizing SMS content.

Enable SMS sending for custom order statuses 

Thanks to the integration with our YITH WooCommerce Custom Order Status plugin, you can also enable SMS notifications for the custom order statuses created with it.

Integration with YITH Custom Order Status

1 year of updates, bug fixes and technical support

The official plugin license entitles you to one year of updates (and new features that will be added in future versions), error and bug fixes, and access to our technical support platform.

30-Day money back guarantee

Do you have any doubts about the plugin and don't know if it's a good fit for your project? You have nothing to worry about, you can always take advantage of our 100% money back guarantee and get a full refund within 30 days of purchase.

Plugin integrations

All the products in our YITH catalog are developed on the same shared framework. This grants full compatibility among all our plugins and allows combining them together to get even more powerful results and more complete solutions.

We do our best to also include compatibility with the most popular WordPress and WooCommerce plugins available on the market.

You can use this plugin with*:

YITH Booking and Appointment for WooCommerce

YITH Booking and Appointment for WooCommerce allows advanced management of a booking system for the products of your shop. Once you have configured the prices, services, and availability, the plugin will automatically manage the product depending on the user’s choice.

The integration between these two plugins allows you to enable the sending of SMS notifications also for all the order statuses related to booking products.

YITH WooCommerce Custom Order Status

Using YITH WooCommerce Custom Order Status you can create custom statuses you can then assign to orders in your shop. You may also edit the default WooCommerce ones.

The integration with YITH WooCommerce Sms Notifications allows you to enable the SMS notifications also for all the order statuses you have created.

YITH Frontend Manager for WooCommerce

YITH Frontend Manager for WooCommerce adds a frontend dashboard to your site through which the administrator and shop managers can manage orders, products, and coupons as they would do from WordPress dashboard.

The integration with SMS Notifications adds a metabox in the order detail view on the frontend.

YITH WooCommerce Multi Vendor

 YITH WooCommerce Multi Vendor allows you to turn your store into a multistore where vendors manage their own product and earn a commission on every sale.

By integrating these two plugins users will still receive only one text (sent by the global administration) while every vendor will have the chance to choose which order status they want to receive text notifications for.

YITH WooCommerce Order & Shipment Tracking

 YITH WooCommerce Order & Shipment Tracking allows you to enter shipping data for each order, in order to allow users to track the status of their shipments.

The order shipping data can be entered using the dedicated placeholders in the notification texts. The plugin will take care of sending an SMS notification once the order status changes.

YITH Request a Quote for WooCommerce

 Thanks to YITH Request a Quote for WooCommerce you can offer users the chance to ask for a quote for one or more products in your shop. Once the request is received, you can process your offer and send it via email.

The integration with YITH WooCommerce SMS Notifications allows you to enable the SMS notifications also for all the quote statuses.

* All the plugins listed in this section are not included in YITH WooCommerce SMS Notifications. In order to take advantage of a specific integration, you need to purchase and activate the premium version of the related plugin.

    La integración que tiene con el plugin booking de Yith va muy bienLo compré recientemente para usarlo junto con Yith booking y está guay para mantener a mis clientes al tanto del cambio de estado, considero que da más confianza. Molaría aún más si se pudiese enviar también los detalles de la reserva por SMS.
