SMS Sender IDs for Brand Recognition: Use A Custom SMS Sender ID For Your Business

Enhancing Brand Recognition with Custom SMS Sender IDs

In the world of marketing, every brand interaction counts. That's why Australian businesses are using custom SMS Sender IDs to improve their campaign outcomes through enhanced brand recognition and engagement. Using a custom SMS Sender ID is a crucial step to avoid your messages being mistaken for spam and helps to keep your customers feeling confident when communicating with you. It's simple to get a Sender ID with Notifyre and best of all, sender IDs are included with your account. 

Research shows that Australians read 97 percent of text messages within just 15 minutes of receiving them; highlighting the speed and effectiveness of SMS as a communication tool. When paired with a trusted and recognisable SMS Sender ID, your message is not only seen but also remembered.

How to Send SMS With Your Company Name

Imagine your company name or tagline at the top of every text message your customers receive. That's the impact of a custom SMS Sender ID! Replace a generic number with your business name or number (alphanumeric or alphabetical characters) and showcase your brand's identity. Each Sender ID can have up to 11 characters.

The SMS Sender ID Registry

Australia's communications regulator, ACMA, has introduced mandatory registration for all alphanumeric SMS Sender IDs. If your business sends SMS under a brand name to Australian numbers, registration is now required.

From 1 July 2026, Notifyre is required to replace any unregistered alphanumeric Sender ID with "Unverified" before your message is sent. This will affect how your messages appear to recipients and is likely to impact whether they are opened and acted on.

Notifyre is an approved ACMA telecommunications provider, which means you can manage your Sender ID registration directly through your Notifyre account.
