BG TEL SMS for WooCommerce sends SMS notifications through the official BG TEL SMS API when an order moves to a selected status.

The plugin supports asynchronous delivery, bounded retries, custom order statuses, international phone-number normalization, WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS), and duplicate-send protection.

  • WooCommerce 8.0 or later
  • PHP 7.4 or later
  • A BG TEL SMS account with an account code, API key, and approved sender ID

Installation

  1. Download bgtel-sms.zip or clone this repository.
  2. If you cloned the repository, create a ZIP whose top-level directory is bgtel-sms.
  3. In WordPress, go to Plugins > Add New Plugin > Upload Plugin.
  4. Upload the ZIP, install it, and select Activate Plugin.
  5. Go to WooCommerce > BG TEL SMS to configure the integration.

How delivery works

flowchart LR
    A["Order status changes"] --> B{"Status enabled and settings valid?"}
    B -- "No" --> C["Do nothing"]
    B -- "Yes" --> D["Queue delivery"]
    D --> E["Build message and normalize phone"]
    E --> F["Send through BG TEL SMS API"]
    F --> G{"Successful?"}
    G -- "Yes" --> H["Record order note and delivery state"]
    G -- "Temporary failure" --> I["Retry, up to 3 total attempts"]
    G -- "Permanent or final failure" --> J["Record order note and log entry"]

The plugin uses these API endpoints:

  • POST https://apipro.bgtelsms.com/balance
  • POST https://apipro.bgtelsms.com/onetomany

Security and privacy

  • Settings and credential tests require the manage_woocommerce capability.
  • The saved API key is not displayed again in the settings form.
  • API requests are sent over HTTPS.
  • Customer phone numbers are read from WooCommerce orders and are not copied into plugin-specific metadata.
  • Uninstalling removes the plugin settings but retains order notes and delivery metadata with the related orders.

WordPress stores the API key in the options table using its standard settings mechanism. Protect the WordPress database and restrict administrative access accordingly.
