WooCommerce URL Coupons Plugin

Send SMS updates to customers when their order status is updated and receive an SMS message when a customer places a new order.

Why offer SMS Order Updates?

Simple – it’s the best way to give customers information about their order. According to Frost & Sullivan, SMS messages have a 95% open rate and most are read within 5 seconds. This is three times better than email and can be far more personalized. For example, you could customize the “Completed” status SMS message to include a coupon code for 10% off the next order. Get creative and watch your sales soar!

Powered by Twilio

This extension is designed to work with Twilio, the premier cloud communications service, with support for over 40 countries. You’ll need to sign up for a free Twilio account if you don’t already have one. Outbound SMS messages start at just 1 cent in the US.

Keep Your Customers in the Loop

Text messages get read more than any other form of communication. Ensure that customers receive information they want by offering text message order updates. Customers can opt-in to SMS updates by checking a box during checkout. Once they opt-in, they’ll receive an SMS message when their order status changes.

You can even send messages for your custom order statuses created with Order Status Manager! For example, let customers know when an order has been updated to your custom “shipped” status, and you can even customize the text used for your custom statuses.

Powerful Customization

You can change which order status changes will send updates to customers and customize SMS messages to include store name, order ID, order amount, order status, and other order data along with your custom text.

You also have the option to automatically shorten URLs within messages using Google’s URL shortener.

Get Insight into Every Order

Send SMS updates to your customers directly from the Edit Order screen. A handy character count is shown so you don’t go over the 160 character limit for SMS messages. Customers don’t need to have opted-in to SMS updates for you to send them an SMS.

Add a unique URL to a coupon code to automatically apply discounts and (optionally) add products to the customer’s cart.

Extend or Automate your Coupons with WooCommerce URL Coupons

The URL Coupons by SkyVerge extension allows you to add a unique URL to any coupon in your WooCommerce store. When this URL is used or clicked on, it automatically applies the coupon discount and can (optionally) add products to the customer’s shopping cart.

URL coupons gives you the perfect way to make your print advertising actionable, or you can also help customers remember coupons so that they actually complete purchases. Measure the success of your pay-per-click ad campaigns by using a coupon URL, or use the plugin to only allow URL coupons.

Increase Conversions by Removing Coupon Fields

Studies from major analytics companies like KISSmetrics have shown that coupon boxes are conversion killers. Customers leave your site to search for coupons, and may not return. URL coupons gives you the flexibility to be your only coupon method.

You can allow the plugin to hide your coupon code fields in the cart and/or checkout so that only URL coupons can be used. This way, customers with coupons automatically have them applied by visiting your URL, while other customers never leave to go coupon hunting.

Automatically Apply Coupons for Visitors

You can use the URL of an existing page or post on your site to trigger coupons. This means that you can trigger a coupon for anyone who reads a particular blog post or visits your landing page. This is a great way to reward your fans, brand loyalists, or customers that interact with you blog by providing an automatic discount.

Redirect customers after coupon application

You can redirect customers if you choose once they’ve visited a coupon URL. This allows you to optionally add products to the cart when the URL is visited and immediately send customers somewhere, such as the cart or checkout. This reduces as many barriers to purchasing as possible, and can even be used with WooCommerce One Page Checkout for a completely seamless, one-page coupon application and purchasing experience.

Personalize Your Coupon URLs to Reward Customers

You can use a generic coupon URL, such as mystore.com/coupon/thanks, that will apply a “thank you” coupon. However, since this coupon URL doesn’t use a trailing slash, you can also use this to personalize the experience for your customers, as the URLs mystore.com/coupon/thanks-john or mystore.com/coupon/thanksjane will also work for this coupon.

You can also disable this behavior by using a trailing slash like mystore.com/coupon/thanks/ if you’d prefer to use one definite URL for coupons instead.
