Twilio SMS Notifications

The Advanced Shipment Tracking (AST) PRO plugin is compatible with the Twilio SMS Notifications plugin for WooCommerce. This integration enables store owners to send shipment tracking details via SMS when an order status is updated to Shipped (Completed) or Partially Shipped.

✅ Requirements

To enable and use this integration, ensure the following:

• Both AST PRO and Twilio SMS Notifications plugins are installed and activated.
• You are using the latest version of both plugins for the best performance and compatibility.

📋 Overview

By default, the Twilio SMS Notifications plugin does not include shipment tracking information in its SMS templates. However, with a custom code snippet, you can extend its capabilities to send tracking details for:

• Completed (Shipped) orders
• Partially Shipped orders

This helps you keep customers informed at every shipping milestone via SMS.
