Order Status Update Notifications via WhatsApp
E-commerceCustomer SupportStarterBeginner
What It Does
Keeps your customers informed at every step of their order journey — from confirmation to delivery — via WhatsApp messages. No more "Where is my order?" tickets flooding your inbox.
How It Works
- Trigger: Order status changes in your Shopify / WooCommerce / custom backend
- Step 1: The automation detects the new status (confirmed, shipped, out for delivery, delivered)
- Step 2: A pre-written WhatsApp template message is sent to the customer:
- Order Confirmed: "Thanks for your order! Here's your order summary…"
- Shipped: "Great news! Your order has been shipped. Track it here: [link]"
- Delivered: "Your order has been delivered! We'd love your feedback."
- Step 3: All messages are logged in a Google Sheet for your records
Why It Matters
WhatsApp messages have a 98% open rate compared to 20% for email. Proactive updates reduce support tickets by up to 40% and make customers feel taken care of. Happy customers = repeat customers.
Who Is This For?
- E-commerce store owners on Shopify, WooCommerce, or custom platforms
