  • You will need to include your business name inside the SMS body.

  • Messages are sent through viaSocket’s authorised sender ID.

  • Only template variables can be customised.

  • Informative messages

  • Limited internal or registered recipients

  • A simple built-in SMS option within your automation

Limitations :
For needs like:

  • Bulk messaging

  • Your own sender ID

  • Marketing or promotional content
