What is Link Clicked?

Link Clicked monitors every link click in your text messages in real time.

The moment a subscriber clicks, you can automatically trigger smart follow-up actions like sending a personalized message, enrolling them in another Flow, tagging them, or launching an A/B test to optimize performance.


Why Use Link Clicked?

Link Clicked helps you:

  1. Identify Engaged Subscribers – Know who's interested based on who clicks your links

  2. Send Targeted Follow-Ups – Automatically message people who showed interest by clicking

  3. Create Smart Journeys – Move engaged customers to different Flows based on what they clicked

  4. Track Interest – See which links get the most clicks and engagement


How to Add Link Clicked Listener


Step 1: Open your Flow Builder

Step 2: First, make sure you have a Send Message action with a link in it

  • Your message must contain a clickable link (product URL, discount link, etc.)

Step 3: In the left sidebar under LISTENERS, find Link Clicked

Step 4: Drag and drop Link Clicked or hit (+) sign to add below your message in the Flow

Step 5: Connect actions to the Link Clicked listener:

  • Add a Send Message action to send a follow-up

  • Or add Add to Flow to move them to another Flow

  • Or add any other action from the ACTIONS menu

Step 6: The Link Clicked path will only trigger for subscribers who click the link

Step 7: Save your Flow


How It Works

Here's what happens when you add Link Clicked to your Flow:


When a subscriber reaches your message:

  1. They receive your message with a link

  2. TxtCart waits to see if they click the link

  3. The Flow splits into two branches:

  • Clicked branch → For subscribers who click the link

  • Not Clicked branch → For subscribers who don't click the link

This lets you send different messages or actions to engaged subscribers (who clicked) vs. non-engaged subscribers (who didn't click).

Important Notes:

  • Link Clicked only works if your message contains a clickable link

  • The subscriber must actually click the link for the listener to trigger

  • You can add multiple actions after Link Clicked (send message, add tag, add to Flow, etc.)
