  • SMS sent to guests will be sent to the mobile phone number provided by the guest. This must be the correct international format (New Zealand = 64211XXXXXXX / Australia = 614XXXXXXXXX....)
  • SMS message can utilise a range of preconfigured templates, just like emails.
  • Any reply SMS from the guest will be sent to the nominated email address on your SMS Global account.
