Last year's gap

Last BFCM, the gap was 17% against 55%

Across 409 merchants and 1.6 million peak orders worth $218M, brands running Dataships captured 55% of shoppers on SMS. Without it, that figure was 17%. On email the same period ran 75% against 60%. Peak season is when that gap costs the most, because it is the quarter with the most shoppers going through your checkout.

Why now

Why add Dataships before BFCM

Consent rate

Capitalize on your highest sales months

A higher marketing consent rate across peak means better 2027 LTVs from the customers you acquire now. A free A/B test quantifies the impact before your largest sales days. It installs on Shopify in minutes, with no developer work and no changes to your checkout build.

SMS included free

SMS consent capture free through peak season

SMS is a proven higher converting channel, and growing your opted-in list through peak sets up a stronger start to 2027. It is free through December 31 and your first invoice is dated January 1, so the whole of peak is captured before anything is billed.

"For me, Dataships was a no-brainer. It makes the opt-in experience better for the customer and easier for us, all while staying compliant and showing exactly how much incremental revenue we're earning."

Terms

The terms, in plain English

Eligibility is an annual contract signed before Black Friday, November 27. Monthly contracts do not qualify.

The free period ends December 31, and billing for the platform and the SMS add-on begins automatically on January 1. We email a reminder in mid-December, and you can remove the add-on before billing starts.

You keep every consent record captured during the free period either way. List price is unchanged.
