Yotpo: Email Marketing & SMS

Cant access anymore... I had a balance $70... And support email direct to a form I cant even login.. Well done!

I've been using the application since 2020 (SMS Bump at the time) and now, for no reason at all, the flows of abandoned cart are no longer being sent.
The support is useless.

I have been using this app for 8 years along with their other apps, Yotpo Reviews and Yotpo Loyalty Rewards. I waited way too long to delete their clunky apps. And because I was a long time grandfathered-in member, they thought the need to disconnect my Klaviyo integration because I wasn't paying their "Premium Price". That's not MY FAULT! When I had an issue, they would try to get me to upgrade. Why would I want to upgrade and pay more money for less when I have been using your app since August 2017? Yotpo has left me with a very bad taste in my mouth.

charge money alone take care

Terrible Experience – Avoid Black Crow!
I signed up with Black Crow based on a Yotpo recommendation, expecting a reliable and results-driven service. Unfortunately, that couldn’t be further from the truth. Once they took our money, there was zero follow-up or support. They didn’t bother to check if the system was even working or delivering any value.

Trying to cancel was a nightmare — the process is deliberately difficult and frustrating. It’s clear they care more about locking you in than actually helping your business grow. Very disappointing experience. Save your time and money — look elsewhere.

I'm just starting with Yotpo but cannot agree to all the 5 star ratings. I find e.g. the email editor or the flow designs cumbersome and not easy to navigate. And when asking the support team often I end up with the SMS team even though I ask for the email team. Once connected to the right team it again takes a long time to get to the right answer. Not great so far. I will update this review once I have more and better experience.

This transition has not gone as planned—and it has cost us big time. Since switching to Yotpo Email, we’ve lost over $50,000 in email revenue, due to a botched migration that we were told would take 1 month… it’s now dragging into month 3. Yotpo admitted we were right, but only credited us $3,369 out of the full losses—even though we followed all their guidance.

They explicitly told us it was safe to leave Klaviyo. It wasn’t. Our email performance dropped immediately, and fixing it has drained hours of internal time.

To make matters worse, they never disclosed we’d need to pay $2,286 per year for a third-party Zapier app just to keep using Attentive SMS—even though we made it crystal clear from day one that we weren’t switching SMS platforms.

Now they’re saying they’ll “make sure future sales reps don’t forget to disclose this.” That’s not a solution—that’s a warning to everyone reading this.

We’re even considering legal action because the financial and operational damage is ongoing. If you're thinking about leaving Klaviyo, DON’T. I regret this decision every day.

They scammed us with a flow that started wasting a lot of money when they convinced me to set my payment method in automatic. Don't trust them, because the amount that is spent on your account is not updated until days after. You can end up losing a lot of money with this app and their tricky support team.

If I could put 0 stars, I would.

Extremely disappointed in the customer service of this company. I had been using a variety of Yotpo apps for years now, and had switched over my SMS service to Mailchimp as of the holidays 2023. My last use of Yotpo's SMS app was Black Friday 2023.

Randomly, on a Sunday evening, on May 12th 2024, my Yotpo account says it sent out a random "automation" to all of my SMS subscribers without my consent. I had never sent up any type of automation, and even after checking my account, could not identify what was "setup" or "sent". What I did notice though is that I was had SIX $20 recharges made to send these mysterious texts. (BTW, my own phone number is one of the numbers within the list and I hadn't received any text from this "campaign".)

When I reached out to Yotpo to ask for assistance and a refund for this unauthorized charges, they simply blamed the fact that my auto-recharge option was still on, and so despite me not ever creating this "campaign" and them being unable to even figure out on their end how it was created or by who, I am still responsible for paying these recharges for an automation "sent" in error. But again, as I have said above. I never received a text from this campaign, and others who I know personally that also had a phone number on our list didn't either.

I am out $120 for a campaign I never set up, a campaign that Yotpo cannot figure out how was setup, and a campaign that I am not even convinced truly sent to anyone at all.

And Yotpo refuses to refund me.

Despite my years of loyalty and despite no proof showing that this wasn't an error on their systems part.

If I were you, I would run.

Find a different app with a company who cares about their customers and stands behind making their own flaws corrected.

I have been using this app for the past two years, the sms campaign part of things Is a complete scam. Recently I’ve noticed that the campaigns aren’t being sent to my customers and the app is overcharging for messages sent. I’ve reached out each time and a ticket is created with no resolution and broken promises. I will be moving to a different app.
