If you're a Shopify merchant, Smartrr can help you increase recurring revenue and LTV with a variety of out-of-the box subscription models, a beautifully branded subscriber account experience, member-only benefits, and more. By integrating Smartrr with Attentive, you can create journeys in Attentive to alert customers to their subscription activity and allow them to manage subscriptions via SMS.
With this integration, you can:
- Use custom events to create journeys. For example, you can send a message to a subscriber letting them know that:
- their previously paused subscription has been successfully resumed
- their subscription has been successfully paused
- their subscription is confirmed after they place a subscription order
- their subscription has been successfully canceled
- their subscription order has been skipped
- their subscription order has been unskipped
- they have an upcoming subscription order
- their payment for an upcoming subscription has failed
- their subscription payment method has been successfully updated
- Use the following custom attributes to create segments for targeted messaging:
- customerCurrency
- orderCount
- totalSpent
- activeSubscriptionsCount
