Hi there, Thanks for taking the time to leave a review and share feedback. Though I can't see why this review was left, would greatly appreciate some insight/details so we can make this right. I see you are just a few days into trial period and have not reached out to our support team for anything as of current, and we'd love to help you with anything you might be experiencing as far as setup or issues. We're confident with a bit of support, you can get the results you're looking for and we can turn this around into a positive review. If you'd like help getting your UK number setup, we can handle this free of charge as a white glove service :) Thanks!

I do not recommend this app, without authorization from our store they upgraded the plan and started charging us with no notification. Our team realized this unexpected charge after getting the first invoice.

15% of the lost sale if you get it back - Plus monthly subscription - Plus extra charge for AU phone number. ummmm whats left for us? NOTHING! Clever concept. But very over priced. Replying to your reply: The app didnt give any other options other than saying 15% will be taken on a successful sale. You only Just emailed me with a claim i made a malicious claim. Totally ludicrous. Your prices are not clearly upfront otherwise we would not of installed it. Your aggressive manner in handling this in your email speaks for itself. Look at everyone else saying the same thing on 1 stars! Lower your rate to say 5% and then you won't get this type of review. Bye bye

Hi Team :) We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback, and we're sorry to hear about the challenges you've faced. We take customer satisfaction seriously and are committed to resolving any issues you may be experiencing. It's important to note that Shopify takes up to 24 hours to publish reviews, after your review was submitted, we made several attempts to reach you to address your concerns/issues with TxtCart. However, it seems that our messages have been overlooked. We would like to confirm that we do have multiple different plans priced at different levels to service merchants of different sizes. These plans rev share scale down as you upgrade. If 15% doesn't allow for profit due to your margins, then perhaps one of our plans offering 5% does? In any event, we offer a 14-day risk FREE trial to see how the conversational SMS platform powered by TxtCart can serve you. To swiftly resolve this matter, we encourage you to contact our dedicated support team at [email protected]. They are ready to assist you and ensure your experience with TxtCart is seamless. Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to helping you get the most out of our app in the future, should you return :) TxtCart Team

They tax 20% of all your sales - whether they got the sale or not. Intentionally aggressive attribution tactics- the team at TxtCart is trying to skim a % of all your sales. They will message each of your customers and regardless of whether the customer orders through their discount code or not, they will charge you a 20% commission depending on your plan. After bringing to their attention that they are charging commissions on orders they did not get this was their response " please read our terms and conditions as well as attribution policy. You signed up for the platform agreed to our billing and we fulfilled our service. Your margins are not our responsibility. Usage charges are non refundable." they tried to justify their aggressive attribution by claiming that "discount codes are not the only way sales are attributed. anyone who "clicks on their link and views the product" is considered their customer and they will charge the full commission if that customer places an order within 7 days of clicking, regardless if they used the discount code provided by TxtCart. If you don't want to share a tax of 20% of sales with TxtSMS than i suggest you stay away. To top it off their support team was supper rude saying " hope you learn how to read better" when trying to explain their aggressive tactics. Who wants to deal with a flawed system and terrible support?

I had it for 3 days and got charged 80’follard saying they sent out a text and the client placed a small order this company should be taken off Shopify. The hidden fees and agendas are robbery

Daniel, As mentioned via support, call and email - you installed TxtCart's Basic Plan ($0/mo + 20% of sales). Within 3 days, TxtCart generated $400 in revenue for Sickest Barbers, of which $78 was billed correctly. This is over a 5X ROI - a great thing to celebrate. I understand you didn't fully understand the pricing options you had signed up for, nonetheless, we credited your account the $78 which would cancel out any pending invoice charges. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out. - TxtCart Support

Hi, A bit confused at why this was left. This store installed 1 day ago, never reached out to support and randomly leave's a 1-star review regarding customer acquisiton. We are an SMS Marketing & Cart Recovery platform. If you have questions on what we do, we'd be happy to answer them and work with you. TxtCart Team

The app is not yet ready for UK market so cannot complete the set up or use. The expected launch date for UK keeps getting pushed back each month so all very frustrating and a total waste of time. Received an interesting email about our review too - but I'll leave shopify to deal with that......

We appreciate your feedback and regret to hear about the challenges you've faced with our app. I assure you that we take such matters seriously, and I would like to address your concerns promptly. Regarding the UK operations this feature is now LIVE as of 11/25. Pertaining to your two charges, as promised, we had delivered you full refunds of both amounts no questions asked. It is a shame that you resort to defamation and spreading lies about how a business conducts itself and we will be further investigating this matter. We are committed to transparency and accountability in our operations, and we would appreciate the same from you. If you have any additional details or specific information that could assist us in resolving your case efficiently, please do not hesitate to share them.

Hi Ricky, Reached out to you via email. Took a look at your account and you're correct no sales were made, however you were subscribed to our Starter Plan which carries a recurring $29/mo charge and there are carrier usage fees associated with using texts. In any event, we are understanding of small/closed shops and have offered you a full refund for the trouble. Hope you can come to an understanding. - Kyle Founder of TxtCart

Not for me. I was charged $34, never even made a sale. Im sure its great for websites that has more traffic, but if you are just starting out and building your clientele, there are way more beginner friendly apps out there.

Hi, While we appreciate your review, as discussed in your customer support ticket we have refunded you the full amount. To clarify, you signed up for our starter plan which carries a $29/mo recurring charge + usage fees. The $5 carrier fee and recurring fee made up the total $34 charge. Please make sure you read what you sign up for completely before installing apps and give them enough time to generate results. Best, TxtCart Team

This app should be taken off of the Shopify app store for deceptive and false advertising. They will associate any sale that happens after they text the customer even if no link to cart or discount was sent. The texts that are sent to these abandoned checkouts are not human sounding and do not actually address what the customer asks most of the time. Nowhere under the plan information does it say that they charge a $5 monthly fee for carrier usage, to which support told me it is just not advertised... Also telling a customer that they are unaware of SMS marketing costs, and then proceeding to shame me for being on Shopify advanced plan and complaining about the charge is laughable. My Shopify plan is irrelevant from what I pay to this app, and should never have been thrown at me like that. Just because merchants are not noticing your hidden charges does not make it right...

I'm sorry to hear about the challenges you've faced with our SMS app. We take your feedback seriously and want to address your concerns. We want to clarify that our intention is not to deceive or falsely advertise. All information regarding pricing can be found on our listing, website, app charges accepted, TOS, and help center. Our app attributes sales to texts only when they are directly linked to a customer's purchase journey. Each sale must either come from the customer using the link sent in the message, the discount provided, or purchase after reading the message within 7 days. Keep in mind that each abandoned checkout/cart has a unique CARTID, which is tied to our message. If a customer finishes buying the same CARTID we sent a text for within our attribution window, it is a TxtCart sale. While we understand your frustration with the automated texts, we continually work on refining our messaging to improve customer interactions through human agents and ever-improving AI. Regarding the carrier usage fee, we apologize for any misunderstanding. We strive for transparency and will review how this information is communicated in our plans. As for mentioning your Shopify plan, it was not our intention to dismiss your concerns. We appreciate your business and value your feedback to ensure a better experience for all merchants. Thank you for bringing these matters to our attention. - Kyle Co-founder @TxtCart

The text messaging system is not sent by real people as stated in their description. And if their are real people, they sure don't respond to my customers like they are real. When a customer says "no, I don't want additional information" and you send it anyways, that leaves a bad taste. ESPECIALLY, when that customer then leaves us a 1 star review. Never again. I uninstalled immediately. On top of that, they take credit for sales that they didn't generate, which in the long run would cost us a lot of extra money for nothing.

Jacob, It hurts to see you resort to leaving a 1-star review on an app that you have not used since Feb 14th, without ever reaching out to our support team or ownership. You used the app for 5 days on trial, where all sales recovered were done free of charge given our 14-day free trial and $1000 in sales recovered offer. We would be happy to share in-depth our attribution model, which is typical and available to all on our help docs. Had you reached out to our team, we would've been happy to resolve any questions or concerns about our approach, agents, or attribution. Furthermore, I tried to find the alleged 1-star review left on your website which you are attributing to us, but could not. I've emailed you to help resolve any issues you may have so we can remediate and work together.
