SMSGlobal’s SMS Plugin MKII enables WordPress store admins to configure automated SMS notifications. That means important order status updates are automatically sent to the administrator and customers if WooCommerce is installed. The plugin also offers great flexibility in sending individual SMS or bulk SMS messages to various groups and customers. The plugin is free but requires a SMSGlobal MXT account to send messages. Signing up with our service is free, and you only pay for the SMS messages.
