Restaurant SMS marketing in Malta.

98%SMS open rate vs email

When a customer stops coming, TEXT sends them a message. They remember you. They come back.

A short message they open — not another ignored email. "We miss you — book Friday?" feels personal.

A guest stops coming. You can't reach them — you never got their number, and you don't have a list to message.. No phone list upload — wallet pass opt-in. SMS they actually read.

WHY THE OLD WAY LOSES

Why blast tools need data you don't have.

TEXT needs nothing from the restaurant — the wallet pass is the connection.

WATI

Needs customer phone numbers. Most restaurants don't collect them. Generic "50% off pasta" blasts — no behaviour trigger.

Broadly

Inbound only — guest messages first. Not outbound win-back when they stop visiting.

WhatsApp Business App

Manual typing. 256 contact limit. No automation when a guest lapses.

Mailchimp

15–25% email open rates. Guests won't give email for a pasta place.

Before you switch.

01How do I message my restaurant customers?

When a guest saves your STAMP or wallet pass, their device connects to your restaurant — no phone list upload needed. OARC Digital's H360 TEXT sends win-back notifications through that wallet connection when a guest stops visiting. Saving the pass is the opt-in. Built for Malta venues that never collected emails or phone numbers.

02Do I need a phone list?

No. TEXT works through the wallet pass. When a guest saves STAMP or PASS, their device is connected. No upload, no spreadsheet.

03Why not WhatsApp or email?

Most guests won't give email — 15–25% open rates on promos. WhatsApp needs opt-in lists and manual blasts. TEXT triggers when behaviour changes — they stopped visiting.

04Is this the same as WATI?

WATI needs phone numbers and sends generic blasts. TEXT personalises based on wallet connection and visit gaps — no €39/mo broadcast tool required.
