LINE Notify has officially stopped providing its service — what’s next?
With LINE Notify shutting down, many businesses and developers are left scrambling to find a reliable alternative. LINE has become one of the most widely used communication tools in Asia, and losing your automated notifications can mean:
❌ Missed customer orders
❌ No alerts for critical system issues
❌ Slower response times for urgent tasks
To solve this, I built and shared a simple PHP integration using the LINE Messaging API, which provides a more powerful, flexible, and future-proof solution than LINE Notify ever did.
✨ What does this solution offer?
✅ Send real-time push notifications directly to LINE
✅ Build fully customizable bots for interactive communication
✅ Integrate seamlessly with popular tools like Contact Form 7 (WordPress)
✅ Set up webhooks to receive and process incoming data automatically
✅ 📬 Get LINE alerts for new emails and system messages—so you'll never miss an important message again
🔍 Why switch to the LINE Messaging API?
The LINE Messaging API is not just a replacement—it’s an upgrade. While LINE Notify had its limitations (simple one-way notifications), the Messaging API allows:
Two-way interaction: create chatbots, automated replies, and dynamic messaging
Better security and token management
More advanced customization for different use cases (e-commerce, customer service, IT alerts)
Whether you need to send alerts for form submissions, server failures, or even new email notifications, the LINE Messaging API can handle it—fast and reliably.
🚀 Get Started Easily
To help others transition smoothly, I’ve open-sourced my PHP starter project for LINE Messaging API integration:
https://github.com/venwong126/line-api-messageThe repository includes:
A handler for Contact Form 7 submissions
A simple webhook listener
A mail test script
You can deploy it to your own server and customize it in minutes.
✅ Bonus Tip: By integrating LINE Messaging API with your email system, you can receive LINE alerts every time a critical email arrives—ensuring you’ll never miss high-priority messages even if you’re away from your inbox.
In this post-NOTIFY era, it’s more important than ever to stay connected and proactive. If you’re migrating from LINE Notify or starting a new LINE-based project, this is your chance to build something even better 💪.
