What happens next
1
The customer gets a text
If
sms_opt_in is true, they immediately receive an “order confirmed”
text with a link to their live tracking page.2
A driver is dispatched
Rushly finds the nearest available driver qualified for the requested
delivery tier and assigns them automatically — no
action needed from you.
3
You're billed for the delivery
The moment a driver is assigned, your store’s card on file is charged
the tier’s price. If dispatch can’t find a driver right away, the order
stays queued and nothing is charged yet.
4
Delivered
The driver completes the delivery with a photo, and the order’s status
updates in real time on the tracking page from the first text.
