The Value of SMS Reminder

Cost efficient icon
Cost efficient messaging
SMS reminders are a cost-efficient, reliable way to ensure your communications get read. For only a few cents per message, you can make use of an automated system with high deliverability and read rates. Your clients and customers can be easily kept informed about order deliveries, appointments, reservations, and more.

Messages that get read
With SMS, you have a low-pressure means of communication that doesn't require an immediate response like a phone call, and it has a much higher open rate than email. With 90% of SMS messages read three minutes after being sent, they are the best way to deliver reminders.
