Send a text

A group text may be sent to those that are included in the subscribers list(s) on the Send tab. The default group of “Subscribers without Specific Groups” will always be available and may be the only group available if no additional groups have been created.

To send a group text

1.	Click SmartText in the left-hand menu.

2.	Click the Send tab.

3.	Click to select the group(s) in the Message Recipients section that should receive your group message.

4.	Type your outgoing text message in the Message to Send box.

Note: For people that have a SmartPhone with a web-browser you can insert a link into the message. A full website address will take too many characters so use the Web Address Shortener to produce a compact URL. Type your full website URL, click Shorten and Insert. The short version will be inserted within your message.

5.	Click Send Message.

Notes on messages:

Messages are limited (universally) to 160 characters in length. The Message to Send box will not allow more than 160 characters to be entered.

To unsubscribe, subscribers will text “Stop notify <shared keyword>” if you have reserved a shared keyword or “Stop <custom keyword> if you have reserved a custom keyword.

Unsubscribing will unsubscribe from all groups.

When sending a message, if not enough credits are available, a message will appear indicating how many credits are needed in order to complete the current message delivery.

Incoming subscriptions and auto-replies are allowed to create a negative balance. But the next message that is sent will require you to purchase additional credits in order to complete the current message delivery.
