Create SMS templates and send personalised bulk SMS messages
Very helpful, very kind customer/sales support representative. After speaking with Bettina at Notifyre, I will be signing up for their HIPAA compliant efax service. It is rare to get stellar support without high pressure tactics, and they exceeded my expectations

Best in the Market
Not all have email but most have a mobile phone with an SMS reminder being the preferred option because snail mail just does not work. Notifyre makes SMS so simple and lightning fast and a great value for money offering.

Easy to Use and Reliable
Pros: It's easy to use and reliable, consistently working without crashing. Their support team even reached out to me before I started using it, offering help—something very rare in my experience. Kudos to the company!
Cons: None that I found. I used it with Chrome on a Mac, and it worked perfectly.
Overall: It’s easy, quick, and does exactly what it claims.

The most impressive aspect of Notifyre is the reliability — no more service interruptions or delivery delays.”

SMS BEST PRACTICES
Personalise mass SMS messages to boost engagement
Customise bulk SMS communication for the recipient by personalising messages. This enables you to send the same message to multiple SMS numbers with a personal touch.
Automatically personalise your SMS with set of predefined fields such as First Name, or create custom importable fields to mail merge SMS.
Use emojis to set the tone of your SMS 🙂
Insert weblinks into your SMS message for increased conversion rates and more.
Use Unicode to send bulk SMS in other languages or use symbols and characters to create uniqueness.
Establish trust with a custom SMS Sender ID. Use a custom Sender ID to display your organisation name instead of a SMS number.
Schedule SMS broadcasting for the most effective time.
Schedule bulk SMS messages to be sent at desired times to meet your business goals. Maximise SMS messaging workflows, drive efficiency and plan your SMS communication ahead of time. Choose a date and time that:
Meets SMS compliance requirements.
Is convenient for your SMS recipients.
Is proven effective for the highest response rates.
Automatically manage SMS broadcast opt outs
Notifyre’s SMS service offers contact opt out tools. Use the Notifyre unsubscribe link when sending an online SMS. If a contact clicks this link, they are automatically unsubscribed from receiving messages from your business. Or let contacts reply with a SMS opt out keyword. View unsubscribed contacts in your address book in the online SMS platform.

Email to SMS
Notifyre converts the email to SMS and sends it to the desired mobile recipient. Use from any email application.
What are the regulations in Australia for sending SMS broadcasts to customers?
In Australia, SMS broadcasts must comply with the Spam Act 2003, requiring prior consent and an opt-out option for recipients. Read more about the Australian SMS marketing laws in our handy guide for businesses.
What is the best time to send an SMS broadcast in Australia to maximise response rates?
Late mornings and early afternoons on weekdays are generally most effective for SMS broadcasts. Remember to consider Australia’s different time zones to ensure messages reach recipients at the right local time. Avoid early mornings, late nights, and weekends unless your audience prefers it.
Do I need to install software to send bulk SMS through Notifyre?
No, no software downloads or installations are required to start sending. As soon as you’ve created a free Notifyre account, simply add a payment method and top-up your wallet to start sending bulk SMS instantly through our secure web-based portal.
Why should I send a bulk SMS?
Bulk SMS broadcasts are the perfect way to reach your audience all at once. If you have a sale and want to alert your entire customer-base, or just want to send a bulk SMS message to welcome all your new customers, SMS is the tool for you.
How do I send a bulk SMS?
Simply upload your contacts (either via a CSV or done manually through the Notifyre secure web poral), ensure they’re added to a list and select the contact list when sending a quick SMS via the Notifyre web portal. A bulk SMS can also be sent via email, API integration or through your existing apps via our Zapier integration.
Can customers reply to my SMS broadcast?
Yes, you can receive SMS replies from customers for up to 48 hours after a bulk SMS has been sent when using a Notifyre system number. If you’ve added a virtual mobile number to your account and use this to send your broadcast, you’ll receive unlimited SMS replies.
What are the character limits for sending SMS with Notifyre?
Character limits and message parts apply when sending an SMS through Notifyre. It is important to be aware of message characters as this can affect your total message cost.
The maximum character limit for a single SMS text message is 160 characters or 1 message part.
However, Notifyre does not restrict its users from sending an SMS text message that is longer than 160 characters (unless Character Limit is toggled ON under SMS Settings).
If a longer message (multi-part message) is sent, each message has a maximum of 153 characters due to seven characters being needed to facilitate re-joining of the message on delivery. For longer messages sent, the SMS is split into two or more messages that may be reassembled on delivery, so they are a single message (or, on some handsets, may be delivered as a series of separate SMS).
If you send an SMS text message that contains more than 160 characters or 1 Message Parts, every 153 characters or part thereof will be charged as an additional SMS message.
For example, if a SMS text message is sent with 300 characters, the SMS will contain 2 Message Parts and therefore the second Message Part will be charged as an additional SMS text message.
