This plugin covers the SMS and WhatsApp channels: send SMS with your company name as the sender, and WhatsApp messages through your Meta-approved templates, straight from WordPress. More channels will be added in future releases. #### Features * **WooCommerce**: for each order status (processing, completed, cancelled), enable SMS, WhatsApp, or both, with customizable message templates. If WhatsApp is the only enabled channel and sending fails, the SMS message is sent automatically as a fallback. The store administrator can also receive an SMS for every new order. * **WhatsApp**: send messages through your Meta-approved WhatsApp Business templates( created from your Nimba SMS dashboard), with dynamic variables. * **WordPress notifications**: SMS to the administrator on new user registration or new comment. * **Manual sending**: send an SMS or a WhatsApp template message to one or several numbers directly from the admin. * **Send log**: history of sent messages with their delivery status, updated in real time through the Nimba SMS delivery webhook (URL provided in the settings, to paste into the “URL Webhook” field at https://www.nimbasms.com/app/api-keys). * **Live balances**: your SMS and WhatsApp credits displayed in the settings. * **For developers**: `nimbasms_send( $to, $message )` and `nimbasms_send_whatsapp( $to, $template, $variables )` functions plus hooks (`nimbasms_send_payload`, ` nimbasms_after_send`, `nimbasms_wc_templates`, `nimbasms_webhook_received`…) to integrate messaging into your own extensions. #### Requirements A [Nimba SMS](https://www.nimbasms.com) account with an approved sender name. Your API credentials (SERVICE ID and SECRET TOKEN) are available on [the API keys page of your account](https://www.nimbasms.com/app/api-keys). API documentation: [developers.nimbasms.com](https://developers.nimbasms.com). #### External service This plugin communicates with the Nimba SMS API (https://api.nimbasms.com) to send messages and retrieve your account balance and sender names. Data transmitted: your API credentials, recipient phone numbers and message content. Conversely, if you configure the delivery webhook, Nimba SMS servers call a URL on your site (REST endpoint `nimbasms/v1/webhook`, protected by a secret token) to push message status changes. See the [Nimba SMS terms of use](https://www.nimbasms.com/conditions-generales-d-utilisation). ## Screenshots [⌊Settings: API credentials, live SMS and WhatsApp balances, sender name and notifications.⌉⌊ Settings: API credentials, live SMS and WhatsApp balances, sender name and notifications .⌉[ Settings: API credentials, live SMS and WhatsApp balances, sender name and notifications.
