Welcome new subscribers
Automatically send after-sign-up texts to welcome new SMS subscribers. Add a welcome discount code + a link to your online store to initiate that first purchase.
Send text announcements
Let your subscribers be the first to know when new items have arrived, seasonal sales have begun, limited-time sales are running out, and so much more.
Save abandoned carts
Recover more sales with abandoned cart texts. These can be automatically sent to your SMS contacts when they leave your store without finishing their purchase.

Segment your audience
Launch your SMS campaign
Choose from a library of pre-built popup templates and start capturing SMS contacts. You'll be able to send this list your product announcements, cart savers, limited-time coupons, and more.
Now that you have an SMS list, it's time to write your text messages. For abandoned cart texts, let your customer know you saved their cart. For broadcast texts, send a link to your latest holiday campaign, a limited-time coupon code, or a reminder if a customer hasn't shopped in a while.
Set the minimum cart value required for your abandoned cart texts to send. You can also set a maximum cart value. Finally, set the time limit before your cart saver texts automatically send to customers.
Decide if you want to send broadcast texts to your full SMS contact list or segmented lists. Choose from dozens of personalization settings to ensure your texts meet the right audience.
After growing your list, writing your texts, setting your targeting and triggers, it's time to launch your campaign and watch your SMS sales grow!
