We used to spend $400 a month on an SMS API. After switching to TouchSMS Bridge, we pay $79 for the platform and our carrier charges for the rest โ practically nothing on our existing plan. The savings paid for a whole year.
The birthday drip sequence was a game changer for our loyalty programme. We set it up once, enrolled 3,000 contacts, and the platform sends personalised birthday messages every year without us touching anything.
As an agency, the multi-tenant architecture is everything. Each of our 12 clients has their own completely isolated workspace. We manage everything from one super-admin panel.
We were hesitant about using an Android phone as an SMS gateway โ it sounded too informal. But the delivery rate is better than the commercial API we used before. Carrier-to-carrier is simply more reliable.
Email and Telegram alongside SMS โ without any extra campaign setup โ was the feature that sold us. One send action covers all three channels. Our customers always get the message regardless of which app they prefer.
Start your 14-day free trial โ full features, no credit card required. Built in Liberia, for businesses that mean business.
