Bulk SMS
What is Bulk SMS ?
Bulk SMS or bulk messaging refers to sending SMS to one or more recipients via software platforms such as Bulk Sms Platform. In fact, Bulk SMS can scale up to millions of recipients in the case of informational or promotional broadcasts. Alternatively, bulk SMS can also mean individual SMS sent to customers upon an action, e.g. receiving an alert on a credit card transaction. Both of these activities can be easily carried out from bulk SMS platforms as they allow businesses to create, schedule, send, and track SMS campaigns.
