Part 3: Message Delivery Guidelines

Initial Message Delivery:

  1. Subscriber Import Completion: Messages are sent once the import request is processed and a completion confirmation email is sent to the brand. This process takes place during business hours.
  2. Manual Addition of Subscriber: Messages are automatically sent when a subscriber is manually added on the Subscribers page.

Credit Usage and Auto-Reload:

      • Each initial message sent incurs credit usage.
      • Importing and adding subscribers may prompt an automatic credit reload if the account’s balance is low.
