SMS & WhatsApp

The right message, at the right time, on its own

Payment receipts, “your plan ends tomorrow”, “your plan has ended” and hotspot codes go out automatically by SMS, WhatsApp or both, written the way you want.

Quick answer

Can Wave send automatic SMS reminders to ISP customers?

Yes. Wave sends automatic messages for payment receipts, plan-ending reminders (1 to 7 days before), plan-ended notices, hotspot codes, invoice reminders and an optional welcome message. Each can go by SMS, WhatsApp or both, and each has an editable template with tags like the customer’s name and expiry date.

How does WhatsApp work?

Open Settings → WhatsApp, enter your number and scan the QR code with that phone (or type the pairing code). Wave then sends receipts and reminders from your number.

Can I change the wording of messages?
