Overview

Quiet Hours is a customer-friendly feature that ensures your automated text messages are only sent during appropriate times of the day. This feature helps maintain professional communication standards and respects your customers' personal time.
​

How Quiet Hours Work

  • Text messages are only sent between 8:00 AM and 9:00 PM in your customers' local time zones

Message Handling During Quiet Hours

When actions like abandoned carts occur during quiet hours:

  • Messages are automatically queued

  • Overnight messages are held until the following morning

  • Your TxtCart dashboard will show these scheduled messages

Operating Hours

  • Active texting hours: 8:00 AM - 9:00 PM

  • Messages are sent seven days a week, including weekends

  • All times are based on the recipient's local time zone
