How we tested Wix SMS marketing apps

Our evaluation examined the depth of each platform’s features, including automation capabilities, message customization options, and contact management tools. 

User reviews from the Wix App Market provided valuable insights into each app’s real-world performance, reliability, and how seamlessly they connect with Wix’s native features and other popular marketing tools.

We looked at how frequently each app receives updates and improvements, ensuring the platforms are current with evolving SMS marketing needs.

Our value assessment went beyond basic pricing to consider message credits and scalability and included features at each tier. We only wanted to list apps that offer good value and capabilities to empower your Wix SMS marketing efforts. 

How to choose the best Wix SMS marketing app

Follow these six practical steps to choose a Wix SMS marketing app that will deliver results for your business:

1. Check the pricing structure

Calculate how many text messages you’ll send monthly and compare costs based on actual volume, not feature lists. Most stores need 2-3 automated flows (cart recovery, shipping updates) plus occasional promotions.

2. Determine what features you need 

Make a list of your business’s must-have SMS features, such as cart recovery, shipping notifications, or promotional campaigns. 

Omnisend provides SMS, email, and push notifications with automation workflows, templates, segmentation, and signup forms across all pricing tiers.

3. Check the integration setup 

Your SMS app should sync automatically with your Wix store data, customer list, and product catalog without manual data entry. For instance, Omnisend integrates with your Wix store in a few steps and doesn’t require anything technical. 

4. Test deliverability

Create a text message in your SMS app and send a few test messages to yourself and your team using different phone carriers. 

Mobile carriers use spam filters that can block mass messages. Identical automated texts or sending too many messages can trigger these filters.

5. Test notification timing 

Time-sensitive messages like cart recovery and restock alerts work best when they arrive promptly. Test the delay between a trigger (like cart abandonment) and the text’s arrival to see how well your app delivers messages. 

6. Start with core automations 

Set up essential flows, like cart abandonment, shipping updates, and welcome series, to get a feel for the platform after installation. 

Once these perform well and you gain more confidence, expand into complex automations and features to verify that the app does everything you need.
