תיאור
SMS Alert is an all-in-one SMS and OTP plugin for WooCommerce. Send automatic order status SMS to customers and admins, verify buyers with a one-time password (including OTP for Cash on Delivery orders only), let customers log in or register with OTP, recover abandoned carts by SMS, and tell shoppers when a product is back in stock.
It also works without WooCommerce: add SMS notifications and mobile number OTP verification to popular form builders, booking plugins, membership and LMS plugins.
What store owners use it for
- Reduce fake COD orders – ask for OTP verification only on Cash on Delivery orders.
- Recover lost sales – send automated abandoned cart reminder SMS.
- Keep customers informed – SMS for every order status, from new order to delivered.
- Secure logins and signups – Login with OTP, Registration with OTP and Reset Password with OTP.
- Stay on top of stock – low stock alerts for admins and back-in-stock alerts for customers.
- Run multivendor stores – notify vendors and verify their numbers at signup.
An SMS Alert account is required
This plugin sends messages through the SMS Alert SMS gateway, and it works only with that gateway. The plugin is free. SMS credits are purchased from SMS Alert. New accounts include free demo credits so you can test before buying. See the "External Services" section below for what data is sent.

I signed up for a demo account but did not receive any test SMS

The plugin stops sending messages until you purchase credits. If you do not want to purchase, disable all OTP options in the plugin so your website keeps working normally.

I am unable to log in to my WordPress admin
