We support the long message format so texts that go over the limit can be visualized as a single text message. Please note that links will be shortened. Hence, the actual length will be smaller if your message contains links.
Personalisation through Dynamic Fields #
SMS / Text message personalization is a marketing technique that allows you to insert tags in the SMS content that we send to your subscribers. These tags allow us to automatically insert a custom text (the “First Name” of your subscriber for instance) for each recipient from the profile of your collected audience (check out more info about our data platform here).
