Connect SplitSMS to Your Ecommerce Checkout: Order & Payment SMS
Wire SplitSMS into WooCommerce, Paystack flows, and custom carts so customers get order, payment, and shipping texts that reduce support tickets.
Abandoned carts and “was my payment successful?” chats eat margins. Transactional SMS at checkout, payment success, and shipping milestones cuts confusion and builds trust for Ghana shoppers who live on mobile networks.
SplitSMS plugs into WooCommerce via the official plugin and into custom checkouts via API—same wallet, same Sender ID brand on every text.
WooCommerce path
Install SplitSMS for WordPress, connect your API key, and enable templates for new order, processing, and completed. Include order ID and tracking URL so customers self-serve.
Test with a sk_test_ key first, then switch to live keys when templates look right.
Payment gateways and custom carts
After Paystack or card success webhooks fire, call SplitSMS send with the customer’s MSISDN. Keep the copy short: amount, reference, and support contact.
For Flutter/Next storefronts, wrap send SMS in your backend—never expose API keys in the browser.
Compliance and preference
Transactional checkout SMS is expected; promotional “buy again” blasts need consent. Separate templates and segment lists accordingly.
Use delivery reports to spot numbers that bounce before Black Friday week.
