MMS Messaging for Business: Send Rich Messages with Notifyre

MMS Messaging Has Arrived in Notifyre

We’re excited to introduce MMS messaging in Notifyre, giving Australian businesses a powerful new way to connect with customers using images.

MMS is now available:

• In the Notifyre App
• Via the Notifyre API

Whether you’re running campaigns from the dashboard or automating messages through your systems, MMS unlocks new opportunities to engage customers visually and effectively.

What Is MMS Messaging?

MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) extends traditional SMS by allowing you to send images (430KB) alongside text, up to 1,000 characters, in a single message. This makes MMS ideal for:

• Promotions and product launches
• Appointment reminders with maps or visuals
• Branded notifications
• Customer support conversations

Notifyre MMS supports common image formats including JPEG, PNG and GIF.

Why Businesses Are Switching to MMS

Compared to text‑only SMS, MMS creates a richer customer experience and delivers measurable impact:

• Up to 300% more engagement than SMS
• Higher brand recall through visual messaging
• Better click‑through and response rates

For industries such as healthcare, education, retail, and professional services, MMS provides clarity and context that plain text simply can’t deliver.

Send MMS Your Way: App or API

MMS in the Notifyre App

You can now send MMS straight from the Notifyre dashboard, no development required:

• Upload an image (430KB limit)
• Add a subject (up to 20 characters)
• Write your message (up to 1,000 characters)
• Send immediately or schedule for later

This makes MMS perfect for marketing teams, operations staff, and customer service teams already using our online SMS service.

MMS via Notifyre API

For businesses that need automation or system‑to‑system messaging, MMS is fully supported via the Notifyre API. Using the MMS API, you can:

• Send single or bulk MMS
• Attach media via URL or base64 encoding
• Schedule messages using Unix timestamps
• Add automatic unsubscribe links
• Retrieve message and recipient status
• Manage large campaigns with bulk job workflows

This enables powerful use cases such as:

• CRM‑driven campaigns
• Appointment systems with visual confirmations
• Workflow automation and SMS alerts

Developers can integrate MMS alongside existing SMS API and Online Fax workflows for a unified communications stack.

Australian MMS Numbers

For Australian customers, MMS is available as an add‑on feature and requires a MMS‑compatible mobile number. What you need to know:

• New MMS‑compatible numbers can be purchased from Notifyre
• MMS can then be sent via the app or API
• Existing SMS‑only numbers do not support MMS

If you’re currently using an older number for SMS, you’ll simply need to add an MMS‑enabled number to start sending multimedia messages.

Whether you’re sending a single image‑based SMS reminder or automating thousands of messages through the MMS API, multimedia messaging unlocks a new level of engagement for your business communications.
