Batching
Choose how quickly your campaign goes out. Batching sends in smaller segments spread over time instead of all at once.
Why batch
  • Carriers throttle each registered campaign. Spreading the send keeps delivery smooth and avoids carrier filtering on sudden spikes.
  • Replies come in gradually, which gives your team time to respond in the inbox.
Trade-offs
  • Time-sensitive content (an event today, a deadline tonight) reaches some recipients late.
  • The campaign takes longer to finish, so reporting settles later.
  • Sending all at once is fastest but carries the highest filtering risk for large lists.

Text Messaging Setup

  1. 1

    Register your organization

    Carriers require every sender to be registered as a brand with the messaging registry (10DLC). This is a one-time registration for your organization, using your legal name and EIN.

    Register your organization
  2. 2

    Vet your organization

    Optional

    A one-time review by a third-party vetting provider that raises how many texts carriers let your organization send. It is included with SMS Campaigns and never required.

    Available once your organization is registered.

  3. 3

    Register your messaging campaign

    Tell the carriers what you will be texting about and show sample messages. Every approved campaign may send from up to 49 numbers.

    Available once your organization is verified.
  4. 4

    Get a phone number

    Pick a local number your supporters will see. Your first number is included; extra numbers can be bought once you are set up.

    Available once the carriers approve your campaign.
  5. 5

    Start texting

    Complete the steps above to unlock sending.

Two-way inbox

Every reply lands in one inbox.

When supporters text back, your team answers right from the portal, one-on-one, with photos, opt-outs and delivery status in every conversation.

  • Threaded conversations with live unread counts
  • Start a new conversation with any contact
  • Photos supporters text in show up in the thread
  • Unsubscribe anyone who asks in their own words, and still reply one-on-one

Before you hit send

Catch problems before your donors do.

A spam check flags wording carriers may filter and suggests a safer version, and contact cleanup catches bad numbers before a single text goes out.

  • See length, segments and credits as you type
  • Get a safer rewrite with your merge tags kept
  • Text yourself a test first
