Complete Notification Types Reference
Notification Types Overview
Fixmo supports 18 notification types that cover the full range of events in your repair shop. Notifications can be delivered through three independent channels: the in-app notification bell, email to customers, and WhatsApp messages. Each channel has its own toggles, so you have full control over how and where each notification is delivered.
Repair Notifications
These notifications are triggered by repair lifecycle events and keep both your team and customers informed about repair progress.
- REPAIR_STATUS — triggered when a repair changes status (e.g., Diagnosing to Repairing, Repairing to Testing). Sent to the customer via email and WhatsApp. Shown in-app to team members.
- REPAIR_CREATED — triggered when a new repair is created in your shop. Shown in-app to team members. Email sent to the customer confirming receipt of their device.
- REPAIR_OVERDUE — triggered when a repair passes its estimated completion date without being delivered. Shown in-app to team members as a red alert.
Inventory Notifications
Stock-related notifications help you stay ahead of inventory shortages and manage your supply chain.

- REFUND_PROCESSED — triggered when a refund is completed and the money is returned. Shown in-app and sent to the customer via email and WhatsApp.
Three Independent Channels
Every notification type can be delivered through one or more of three channels. Each channel has its own toggle, giving you granular control over your notification strategy.
- In-App Bell — notifications appear in the bell dropdown in the header. Visible to team members based on their role. Available on Pro and Business plans.
- Email — notifications are sent to the customer's email address using your connected email provider or the default noreply@fixmo.app. Toggle each event independently in Settings > Email.
- WhatsApp — notifications are sent to the customer's phone number via WhatsApp Business API. Toggle each event independently in Settings > WhatsApp. Available on Pro and Business plans.
Use multiple channels together for critical events. For example, enable both email and WhatsApp for 'Ready for Pickup' to maximize the chance that your customer sees the notification promptly.
