/Klaviyo
Advanced email and SMS marketing automation for food brands and online-ordering restaurants.
Overview
Klaviyo is a US-founded email and SMS marketing platform widely used by food brands, meal kits, and restaurants with strong direct online ordering. It offers advanced segmentation from purchase history and engagement data, automated lifecycle flows (win-back, abandoned cart, VIP), and combined email and SMS management. Shopify integration is native; other ordering or POS systems typically need connectors or data sync. Transparent self-serve pricing includes a free tier for small lists, with SMS priced per message as an add-on.
