SMS

In the SMS section, you’ll find your list of configured SMS gateways and the domain address for shortened links.

Settings – configuration of shortened domain for links in SMS messages

In this section, you can add your custom short domain.

Why should you consider setting up a custom domain for links in SMS messages?

• Greater trust – a shortened domain looks professional and increases the chance of clicks.
• Lower costs – shorter links take up fewer characters in an SMS, which can reduce the cost of sending.

You can find instructions on how to set up your own short domain for links in the article SMS gateway integration and setting up short domains for links.

Gateways

Here you have a list of your configured gateways:

• ID – Identification number of the gateway, assigned in the order in which they were added to the platform.
• Senders – The number of senders in a given gateway. One sender means one phone number or name from which you send messages. The sender details are hidden in the drop-down list, available under the arrow next to the ID. It contains:
  • Sender status – active or inactive.
  • Sender’s name. 

• Name – The name of the gateway given during its configuration in the platform.

• Callback – The URL necessary to receive delivery reports and information about the number of clicks on shortened links.

• Actions that can be performed on the selected goal:
  • Edit.
