Does Omnisend have WhatsApp?

Omnisend’s pricing, automation and Shopify App Store pages, checked on 12 October 2026, list email, SMS and web push. Its help centre covers WhatsApp through third-party tools such as Chatarmin, where the WhatsApp flows are built outside Omnisend. In Nonito, WhatsApp is the main channel and lives in the same flows as SMS and email.

Can Omnisend send Arabic emails?

It can send them, but Omnisend’s own help centre says it does not natively render right-to-left text, and suggests a custom style that may still leave punctuation out of place. If most of your customers read Arabic, test your templates carefully before you switch anything over.

Is Omnisend cheaper than Nonito?

For a small email list, yes. Omnisend starts at $16 a month and has a free plan. Nonito’s free plan covers up to 50,000 contacts and 10,000 emails a month, and WhatsApp starts on Spark at $49 a month. The fair comparison is what you would pay for the channels your customers actually use.

Pick Nonito if

Moving from Omnisend to Nonito.

You can keep Omnisend running until the new flows are live, then turn it off.

01
Export your contacts from Omnisend
Omnisend lets owners and admins export all contacts, or a segment, to CSV with email and SMS consent and opt-in dates.
02
Connect your store
Shopify connects in a few clicks and is live the same day. Odoo connects through Nitro, which we set up with you during onboarding.
03
Bring your WhatsApp number and templates
Omnisend does not document an export for email templates or automations, so we rebuild the ones you use from screenshots and copy.
04
Turn on the first flows, then switch Omnisend off
Start with order confirmation, abandoned cart and post-purchase feedback, which we set up with you. Cancel Omnisend once they are sending and you can see the orders they bring back.
