About this episode

Welcome to episode 280 of The Ecom Show! Today, I’m joined by Soma Tóth, founder and CEO of Recart, a platform that’s helping Shopify brands scale their SMS marketing efforts. What began in 2016 as a tool to solve WooCommerce’s cart abandonment issues has evolved into one of the top-rated SMS marketing platforms on Shopify, boasting a 4.8-star rating and over 5000+ positive reviews.


In this episode, Soma takes us through Recart’s journey—from its early days as a small tool to its current status as the go-to SMS app for Shopify brands. We dive into the key decisions that led to the platform’s success, why they pivoted from WooCommerce to Shopify, and how AI and pop-ups are transforming SMS marketing.

✅ How AI-powered pop-ups are helping brands capture more leads.
