1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for WooCommerce Integration

To send a free gift coupon on WhatsApp for WooCommerce orders, start by setting up Pabbly Connect. This powerful automation tool allows you to connect WooCommerce with WhatsApp seamlessly. First, create your free account on Pabbly Connect and access the dashboard.

Once logged in, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. Name your workflow something like ‘Free Gift Coupons to WhatsApp’ to easily identify it later. This workflow will be the backbone of your automation process, enabling the connection between WooCommerce and WhatsApp.


2. Configuring the Trigger Event with WooCommerce

The next step involves defining the trigger event in Pabbly Connect. Select WooCommerce as your trigger application and choose the event ‘New Order Created’. This means every time a new order is placed, it will trigger the workflow to send a coupon.

  • Select WooCommerce as the trigger application.
  • Choose the trigger event: New Order Created.
  • Copy the generated webhook URL.

After copying the webhook URL, navigate to your WooCommerce settings in WordPress. Under the ‘Advanced’ tab, find ‘Webhooks’ and create a new webhook. Paste the copied URL as the delivery URL, set the status to active, and select the topic as ‘Order Created’. Save your changes to establish the connection.


3. Capturing Order Details for Coupon Generation

With the trigger set, it’s time to capture the order details. Click on the ‘Recapture Web Response’ button in Pabbly Connect to test the connection. This step will allow Pabbly Connect to receive data from the WooCommerce order you just created.

To create a test order, go to your WooCommerce store and add a product to the cart. Proceed to checkout, fill in the customer details, and place the order. Once the order is placed, the details will be captured in Pabbly Connect, allowing you to see all relevant information including customer name and order details.


4. Creating a Coupon Code in WooCommerce

After capturing the order details, the next step is to create a coupon code. In Pabbly Connect, add another action step and select WooCommerce again, this time choosing the action event ‘Create a Coupon’. This action will generate a unique coupon code for the customer.

  • Select the action event: Create a Coupon.
  • Connect to WooCommerce with your API keys.
  • Fill in the coupon details such as code, discount type, and description.

Make sure to set an expiry date for the coupon and customize it according to your needs. After saving the coupon, it will be created in WooCommerce and ready to be sent.


5. Sending the Coupon Code via WhatsApp

Now, we will set up the final action to send the coupon code to the customer via WhatsApp. Add another action step in Pabbly Connect and select the WhatsApp Cloud API as the application. Choose the action event ‘Send Template Message’ to send the coupon details.

Map the necessary fields such as the recipient’s phone number, coupon code, and expiry date into the message template. Ensure that you have created the template in WhatsApp Cloud API beforehand. Once everything is set up, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to verify that the message is sent successfully.
