<p><a href="https://powerfulwp.com/powerfulwp-sms-for-woocommerce/" rel="nofollow ugc"><strong>PowerfulWP SMS for WooCommerce</strong></a> keeps your customers and team in the loop with instant text messages every time an order changes status. Powered by the <a href="https://api.powerfulwp.com/portal/" rel="nofollow ugc">PowerfulWP SMS API</a>, it takes just minutes to set up – enter your API credentials, toggle the statuses you care about, and you’re live.</p>
<p><strong>Note:</strong> Sending SMS requires prepaid credits purchased through the <a href="https://api.powerfulwp.com/portal/" rel="nofollow ugc">PowerfulWP Portal</a>. The plugin itself is free; you only pay for the messages you send.</p>
<h4>Customer Notifications</h4>
<p>Send SMS messages to customers when their order reaches any status – pending, processing, on-hold, completed, cancelled, refunded, failed, or <strong>any custom status</strong> registered by other plugins.</p>
<h4>Admin & Team Notifications</h4>
<p>Alert store owners and staff via SMS for key events: new orders, processing, completed, on-hold, cancelled, failed, and refunded. Configure multiple admin phone numbers, each with its own country code.</p>
<h4>Manual SMS from the Order Screen</h4>
<p>Need to send a one-off message? Open any order and use the <strong>Send SMS</strong> metabox to compose and dispatch a text directly to the customer.</p>
<h4>Rich Placeholder System</h4>
<p>Build dynamic templates with 30+ placeholders grouped into clear categories:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Order</strong> – number, total, subtotal, shipping, discount, currency, status, date, item count, product names.</li>
<li><strong>Customer & Billing</strong> – name, first/last name, phone, email, company, full address, city, state, postcode, country.</li>
<li><strong>Shipping</strong> – name, company, full address, city, state, postcode, country.</li>
<li><strong>Delivery & Payment</strong> – shipping method, payment method, transaction ID, tracking number, customer note.</li>
<li><strong>Store</strong> – store name, site URL.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Test SMS Tool</h4>
<p>Verify your credentials and delivery before going live. The built-in Test SMS tab lets you send a one-off message with sample placeholder data – nothing is saved.</p>
<h4>Modern, User-Friendly Settings</h4>
<p>A clean, branded settings page with pill-style navigation tabs, animated toggle switches, WooCommerce status colour indicators, a phone-mockup chat-bubble SMS preview, collapsible placeholder panels, and toast notifications.</p>
<h4>Built for Compatibility</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage)</strong> – fully declared and tested.</li>
<li><strong>Cart & Checkout Blocks</strong> – declared compatible.</li>
<li><strong>WooCommerce 8.0+</strong> – tested up to 9.5.</li>
<li><strong>PHP 7.4+</strong> – graceful admin notice on older versions.</li>
<li><strong>Custom order statuses</strong> – automatically detected and supported.</li>
</ul>
<h4>How It Works</h4>
<ol>
<li>Sign up at the <a href="https://api.powerfulwp.com/portal/" rel="nofollow ugc">PowerfulWP Portal</a> and purchase SMS credits.</li>
<li>Enter your API Key, API Secret, and Sender ID in the plugin settings.</li>
<li>Enable the order statuses you want to trigger customer and/or admin SMS.</li>
<li>Customise your message templates using placeholders.</li>
<li>Orders start sending SMS automatically – no cron setup required.</li>
</ol>
<h4>Third-Party Service: PowerfulWP SMS API</h4>
<p>This plugin relies on the <strong>PowerfulWP SMS API</strong>, a paid service, to deliver text messages. You must purchase SMS credits through the PowerfulWP Portal before messages can be sent. When an SMS is triggered, the plugin sends a request to the API with the recipient phone number, sender ID, and message body.</p>
