ARForms SMS

ARForms SMS - WordPress Form Extension with SMS Notifications

ARForms SMS is a WordPress form add-on that allows you to send SMS messages in response to form events. The plugin supports submission notifications, phone number verification (OTP), reminders, and information campaigns, making communication with users faster and more reliable. This solution is suitable for both corporate websites and online stores or booking sites.

Key functionalities of ARForms SMS

• Sending instant SMS notifications after submitting the form – notifications to the administrator and to the person who filled out the form.
• Phone number verification using one-time codes (OTP) – protection against fraudulent claims and improvement of lead quality.
• SMS message templates with dynamic fields – content personalization (e.g. name, order number, appointment date).
• Conditional SMS sending – rules based on form responses (e.g. only for selected services, countries or field values).
• Integration with popular SMS providers (e.g. Twilio, Nexmo/Vonage, Plivo, Clickatell) facilitates operator selection and sending scalability.
• Scheduled mailings and reminders – automatic reminders about appointments, payments or events.
• Sending logs and message statuses – an overview of sent SMS messages, delivery statuses, and communication history records.
• Support for international number formats and basic validation – minimize errors when entering numbers.

User benefits

ARForms SMS increases customer engagement through quick, concise messages delivered directly to your phone. SMS notifications are characterized by high open rates and immediate reach, resulting in faster response times and a reduced risk of lost leads. OTP verification improves the quality of your contact database, and scheduled reminders reduce the number of missed visits and abandoned purchases.

• Higher lead conversion thanks to immediate contact.
• Fewer false reports thanks to number verification.
• Better user experience through personalized notifications.
• Scalable communication without the need for manual intervention.

Applications and use cases

• Online stores: abandoned cart reminders, order and delivery status notifications.
• Medical services and salons: appointment reminders and one-click confirmation of attendance.
• Startups and B2B sales: Instant notifications of new leads and appointments.
• Booking services: booking confirmations and date change alerts.
• Registration forms: user verification via OTP, restriction of spam accounts.

Integrations, security and compliance

ARForms SMS integrates with numerous SMS service providers, allowing you to tailor your provider to your needs and budget. The plugin supports encryption of basic data sent between the form and the SMS gateway and maintains a sending log, facilitating campaign auditing and monitoring. It is recommended that privacy and user consent policies (e.g., GDPR compliance) be considered during implementation, including clear disclosure of phone number processing and providing an opt-out option for SMS communications.

ARForms SMS is a practical tool for people managing WordPress sites who want to increase the responsiveness of communication and improve the quality of contact data without having to use external marketing panels.
