SMS marketing in Dubai & UAE. Reach customers directly

You can share your marketing messages you want to send to a particular audience. We have the database and the tools to send out the sms. If you want to send the sms yourself, we give you the sms panel where you can upload your database and also send sms to your list. This way you can sms when you want and see reports too.

Audience availability depends on the consent and permitted use attached to each source. We do not sell a contact list. Before a campaign, confirm the audience criteria, consent basis, opt-out process and current deliverable count.

Use customer language, service area, interests or purchase history only when that information was collected properly and the consent covers the campaign. Any third-party segment needs the same checks before use.

No list stays perfectly current. Review when and how consent was collected, suppress opt-outs and invalid numbers, then use delivery and response data to assess quality. Do not describe a database as qualified without evidence.

SMS Sender ID is an 11 digit character which can be used to send sms. Usually its your brand or company name. We need to get approval for this sender ID from the telecom operators and it takes 3 - 5 working days. You will be required to submit your company trade license and submit an application form.

We do not guarantee results. It depends on what you mean by a result. When you send your sms, you are broadcasting your message to thousands of people. Now these users may or may not see your message. We don't have any analytics available. If they see your message and they like the message, they may react by either calling your business, visiting your website or any other activity you want them to do in your sms marketing messages. Understand your risk and rewards before engaging in the SMS Campaign. We advise to start with smaller sms quantities to see results and often change the sms message for better performance.

Always send sms using your Sender ID, it gives people reason to open and read your sms. Most important is the offer you are trying to send, Try to give the best offer to which the user is likely to react. Have a separate phone number to track calls or website traffic so you can measure the success. Database quality also plays an important role. Sometimes wrong people may call you, but this is due to the database accuracy which is around 50 - 70%. Check out the best timing when your customers may react and send messages around that time.
