What it does for a shop.

A WhatsApp menu

A reply-driven menu for orders, tracking, bookings, payments, returns and handover to a person, opened by words like “hi” or “menu”.

WooCommerce

Order confirmations and status updates, payment reminders, checkout links, the product catalogue and back-in-stock alerts.

Abandoned carts

Timed WhatsApp reminders for carts left behind, with an optional coupon code.

Bookings and forms

Availability, bookings, reschedules and reminders, and leads from Contact Form 7, WPForms and Gravity Forms.

A website chat widget

Visitors leave their name and number, then choose to chat on the site or carry on from their phone on WhatsApp.

AI replies and handover

Connect Ollama, Flowise, Dify or your own endpoint to draft replies, pause the bot on any chat and take over.

  4. Step 4

    Add the webhook

    Paste the plugin’s webhook address into your key, and replies flow back into WordPress.

And the rest of the plugin.

  • WhatsApp Flows for bookings, quotes, returns, support, leads and feedback
  • Catalogue sync and message template approvals

Questions, answered.

Do I need to write code?

Not on WordPress. The TextBot plugin connects WordPress and WooCommerce to your number from the WordPress admin: order updates, abandoned carts, bookings, forms, a WhatsApp menu and a chat widget. It needs WordPress 6.0 and PHP 7.4 or later.

Can I message anyone?

Only message people who expect to hear from you. The WordPress plugin keeps opt-in records and enforces opt-outs, and WhatsApp’s own terms apply to every number.

Your number. Your API.

Connect your WhatsApp number in under a minute. Annual plans, with no per-message fees.
