Watsira – WhatsApp Notifications helps store administrators send WhatsApp notifications when WooCommerce order statuses change. The plugin provides per-status controls, recipient options, and customizable message templates with order placeholders.
This plugin requires an active Watsira account/API token configured by the site administrator before messages can be sent. Notifications are sent only for order statuses that the administrator explicitly enables.
The plugin normalizes and validates the WooCommerce billing phone number locally and on the server before order placement.
External Service
This plugin depends on the Watsira service to send WhatsApp notifications for WooCommerce orders.
When a WooCommerce order changes to an enabled order status, the plugin may send the order data required to deliver the notification to Watsira. Depending on the message template configured by the administrator, this data may include the customer name, customer phone number, order number, order total, product details, selected order details, and the message template content. This data is sent only for the purpose of sending the WhatsApp notification.
Data is also sent to Watsira when an administrator manually sends a test notification from the plugin settings page. Notifications do not work until the administrator enters the Watsira connection details and enables at least one order status.
The plugin may store a limited local log of notification send attempts in the WordPress database. The log is used by site administrators to review successful and failed notification attempts and is removed when the plugin is uninstalled.
