WooCommerce events, straight into ntfy
Every new order, refund, or customer signup — posted to ntfy the moment it happens. No ntfy app to install, no monthly automation subscription.
The gap this fills: WooCommerce doesn't ship an official ntfy app. If you want new order, refund, or customer signup to show up in ntfy the moment it happens, the usual options are a paid third-party bot, custom code, or routing everything through a $20–50/month automation platform just to move one webhook from one URL to another. ZestyGlue does exactly that one thing for $9/month.
What it looks like
ZestyGlue
WooCommerce — Order · Created
A real WooCommerce event, shown as ZestyGlue formats it for ntfy.
Setup — about two minutes
- Create the connector. In ZestyGlue, start a new WooCommerce → ntfy connector. You'll get a unique webhook URL right away.
- Point WooCommerce at it. In your WordPress admin, go to WooCommerce → Settings → Advanced → Webhooks → Add webhook, pick a topic, and paste in your ZestyGlue webhook URL.
- Set the secret. WooCommerce lets you set a Secret on the webhook — use the same one you enter into ZestyGlue's connector setup, so events can be verified as genuinely from your store.
- Point ntfy at ZestyGlue. Pick any topic name — e.g.
https://ntfy.sh/your-secret-topic — enter it into ZestyGlue, and subscribe to that same topic in the ntfy app or web client.
Tip: WooCommerce lets you scope a webhook to a specific order status in some setups — combine that with a second ZestyGlue connector if you want high-value orders posted to a separate channel.

Questions
Is my WooCommerce Webhook Secret safe with ZestyGlue?
It's encrypted at rest with Fernet symmetric encryption before it ever touches disk, it's never logged, and it's never displayed again in the dashboard after you enter it — only a masked placeholder is shown.
Does this work with WooCommerce Subscriptions or only one-time orders?
Any WooCommerce webhook topic works, including subscription-related ones if that plugin is installed — pick the matching topic when creating the webhook.
I'm on a managed WordPress host — does this still work?
Yes, as long as your store can make outbound HTTP requests, which is standard on every WooCommerce hosting setup.
Do I need to self-host ntfy?
No, the free public ntfy.sh server works fine for most people — just pick an unguessable topic name.
What happens if my ZestyGlue subscription lapses?
Events are silently dropped rather than causing errors on WooCommerce's side — WooCommerce never sees a failure response, so it won't retry aggressively or flag your webhook as broken. Your dashboard will simply stop showing new events until you resubscribe.
