What Zoko merchants do

What reliable looks like: brands growing with Zoko

Sending a message is the start. These are the moments where Shopify brands turn WhatsApp into revenue, and each one is a real Zoko merchant.

Fair is fair

When BiteSpeed is the better fit

BiteSpeed covers more channels than Zoko, including SMS, email, web push and AI voice calls, and many merchants are happy with it. If you want one vendor for every channel, it is worth a look, and worth reading its one- and two-star reviews first. If WhatsApp is where your Shopify revenue happens, and you want a published price and a team that stays responsive after you pay, Zoko is built for that.
