Problem
Merchants using SMS marketing often see low conversion rates and poor cart recovery because traditional messages require customers to navigate to a website or app to complete a purchase. This extra friction leads to missed revenue and limited ability to engage shoppers directly through the channel they already use.
Solution
OneText transforms standard SMS campaigns into a direct‑to‑purchase experience by embedding AI‑generated Magic Links that let shoppers reply with a single text to finalize an order. The platform integrates with Shopify and major payment processors, automatically creates a checkout link, and captures the transaction without leaving the messaging thread. AI‑driven smart replies suggest products, answer questions, and upsell in real time, while a live concierge team handles complex requests to reduce support tickets. Automated refill workflows turn one‑time purchases into repeat orders, and built‑in analytics track revenue uplift, cart recovery, and campaign performance. Merchants can manage campaigns, quizzes, QR codes, and win‑back flows from a unified dashboard, leveraging existing SMS subscriber lists without vendor lock‑in.
