Use our Magento SMS integration to send order updates as well as delivery updates to your customers via SMS.
Set up the integrations via the popular automation platforms Zapier or Make. The platforms both make it easy to set up the SMS integrations and offer you great flexibility to set up the functions that make sense for your specific Magento webshop.
With the Magento SMS integration you can:
SMS messages are an effective communication channel for these purposes. Studies show that 2 out of 3 who shop online prefer to receive updates about their online purchases via SMS rather than other communication channels.

With Zapier and Make, you have the ability to integrate with thousands of services, apps and systems. The most popular apps include e-commerce platforms, social media, CRM systems, payment systems, scheduling tools, communication platforms, CMS systems, and the entire Google ecosystem. Just to name a few.
Zapier and Make are built around so-called triggers and actions, which can be described as a number of complex functions, which via Zapier’s and Make’s smart structure are incredibly easy to connect across different apps. All you have to do is simply combine them in the ways that make sense for your webshop.
An example of a trigger is that a package is ready to be delivered from a Magento webshop, which is intercepted by the Magento app in Make or Zapier, after which an action is carried out. In this case the app dispatches an SMS via GatewayAPI to the customer.
If you haven’t already done so, first create a GatewayAPI account. Afterwards, create a Zapier account or a Make account.
We recommend that you use Zapier if you have a single trigger and a simple flow, where Make is better suited for more complex automation flows, where different actions and flows are executed based on previous actions and results.
Once the accounts are created, you can set up your first integrations by following the steps in the guides below.
