Tell the team about every order in Slack

A paid order posts to your channel with what was bought, what it came to, and a link straight to the order. The one automation nearly every shop wants first.

    Tell the customer on WhatsApp when their order ships

    A completed order sends an approved template to the phone number on the order. WhatsApp only allows a template for a message a business starts, so write and submit one in the WhatsApp Manager first — its placeholders are filled in here with their name and the order number.

    Give every order its own Slack channel

    A paid order opens a channel named after it, puts your team in, and posts the details as the first message — so everything about that job is in one place instead of scattered through email.

    Name the person who should chase a failed payment

    A failed payment posts to your channel with an @ mention of whoever handles them, so it is someone’s job rather than everyone’s.
