Frequently Asked Questions

How many keywords can I have?
You can have unlimited keywords on your account. Each keyword can have its own unique response and trigger different actions. This allows you to run multiple campaigns simultaneously or have different keywords for different purposes.
Can I change keyword responses after setup?
Yes, you can update keyword responses at any time through our platform. Changes take effect immediately, allowing you to adjust your campaigns on the fly based on performance or changing needs.
Do keywords work with both shortcodes and long numbers?
Yes, keyword campaigns work with both shortcodes (like 3333) and standard mobile numbers. Shortcodes are more memorable for marketing campaigns, while long numbers can be more cost-effective for smaller campaigns.
Can I capture additional information beyond the keyword?
Absolutely! You can capture the entire message content after the keyword. For example, if someone texts "DEDICATE Play our song for Sarah", you'll capture both the keyword (DEDICATE) and the full message, allowing for rich interactions.
How fast are keyword responses sent?
Keyword responses are sent instantly - typically within 1-3 seconds of receiving the incoming message. This immediate response is crucial for engagement and user experience.
