In e-commerce, retaining customers and increasing conversion are key success factors. If you're a developer or owner of a WooCommerce-based online store, you know how important it is to stay in touch with buyers after their first interaction.
That's exactly why we built a plugin that specializes in targeted SMS remarketing. This tool automates communication with customers, boosts loyalty, and drives repeat purchases. In this article we'll take a detailed look at the plugin's functionality, capabilities, and benefits for your business.
Why does SMS remarketing matter for WooCommerce?
SMS messages have one of the highest open rates — over 95% — compared to email or push notifications. They let you reach a customer quickly, remind them of your brand, and prompt action.
Our plugin integrates directly with WooCommerce, using order, customer, and purchase data to build personalized campaigns. It doesn't just send messages — it does so intelligently, based on user behavior.
The plugin keeps its own customer database synced with WooCommerce, but allows advanced filters and segmentation. This means you can build triggers based on real data such as purchase totals, dates, or favorite products.
Key features of the plugin
Let's look at the key capabilities that make this plugin an indispensable tool for developers and marketers.
Automated event-based triggers
The plugin lets you set up automatic SMS messages that fire under certain conditions. Here are a few examples:
- Post-purchase reminder: A week after a successful purchase, the customer receives an SMS thanking them, reminding them of the company, or inviting them to leave a product review. This boosts loyalty and collects valuable feedback.
- Failed payment handling: If a payment fails, an hour later the plugin sends a message offering to try paying again or choose cash on delivery. This helps save lost orders and improve conversion.
- Reactivating inactive customers: If a user hasn't made a purchase in over 50 days, the plugin automatically sends a personalized SMS with a promotional offer or a reminder of their favorite products.
- Loyalty rewards: When a customer reaches a certain total purchase amount (e.g., 5,000 UAH), the plugin sends a special promo code for their next purchase. This encourages repeat visits.
These triggers are easy to configure through the plugin's interface, with no deep coding required.
Personalization with variables
To make SMS messages as relevant as possible, the plugin supports dynamic variables inserted into the message text. Available variables include:
- Total amount of all customer purchases.
- Amount of the last purchase.
- Date of the last purchase.
- Date of the first purchase.
- Favorite products (based on view or purchase history).
- Recently purchased products.
For example, a message might look like this: "Dear [Name], it's been [Days since last purchase] days since your last purchase. Here's a promo code for [Favorite products] with a 10% discount!"
Bulk campaigns and segmentation
In addition to automated triggers, the plugin supports bulk SMS campaigns across your entire customer base or selected segments. You can filter your audience by criteria such as region, purchase amount, or activity. This is ideal for seasonal promotions or new product announcements.
Analytics and conversion tracking
Each campaign generates a unique link to your website (e.g., with UTM tags). This lets you track which campaign type drives the most conversions — whether it's a review reminder or a promo code for inactive customers. Integration with Google Analytics or WooCommerce analytics makes analysis simple and effective.
Benefits for developers and store owners
As a developer, you'll appreciate the ease of integration: the plugin installs in minutes through the WordPress admin panel, and the API lets you extend functionality with custom scripts. It's compatible with popular SMS gateways, so you can choose the one that best fits your needs.
For businesses, the benefits are clear:
- Higher conversion: Automated reminders can increase repeat purchases by 20-30%.
- Time savings: Instead of manual campaigns — everything is automated.
- Data protection: The customer database is stored locally, in compliance with GDPR and Ukrainian personal data laws.
- Flexibility: Triggers and variables let you build hyper-personalized campaigns without major expense.
