Automated Reminders

Never Miss an Opportunity

Dramatically reduce no-show rates for appointments, webinars, and reservations. WACM.in lets you schedule and automate reminders to be sent via WhatsApp at the perfect time. Send a reminder 24 hours before and another 1 hour before an event to ensure maximum attendance.

This feature is also perfect for payment reminders, subscription renewals, or any time-sensitive update. Keep your customers informed and engaged, improving their experience and protecting your revenue.

Reminder Types:

  • Appointment Reminders: Automated alerts before scheduled appointments.
  • Payment Reminders: Notify customers about upcoming or overdue payments.
  • Subscription Renewals: Alert before subscription expiry for renewals.
  • Event Notifications: Webinar, workshop, or event reminders.
  • Order Updates: Shipping confirmations and delivery notifications.
  • Follow-Up Sequences: Multi-step reminder campaigns with delays.

Scheduling Options:

Use the Flow Builder's delay nodes to create timed reminder sequences. Schedule messages for specific dates/times or set relative delays (e.g., "send 2 hours before appointment"). The queue system handles batch processing for large-scale reminder campaigns.

  • Improve Collections: Send timely payment and subscription renewal alerts.
