How Does SMS Forwarding Work?

  • SMS forwarding works by routing incoming text messages to the recipient's email address set up in their AVOXI Genius online portal.
  • All logos, pictures, and email signatures will be removed from the reply message, making it look like a “text message.”
  • This allows you near real-time conversations with your customers using a communication method they already utilize and prefer.
  • Messages can be up to 160 characters long; anything longer will be broken into two messages, with inbound messages and outbound responses charged as two individual messages.

Key benefits that make SMS valuable to your business:

  • Immediately increase customer satisfaction ratings by adding SMS to your toll-free and local numbers to connect with customers instantly.
  • Personalize and humanize your communication and increase engagement by utilizing the platform customers already use every day. 
  • SMS open rates are as high as 98% and read in 90 seconds, and polls also predict that by the end of 2020, 85% of interactions between brands and customers will be managed without speaking.
  • 71% of consumers think SMS is an effective way to communicate with a business. In addition, 68% of consumers would like to use mobile messaging to contact a company regarding billing questions or concerns.
  • Please note our product offering is not ideal for companies who want to use it for blast marketing messages,  automated doctors appointment reminders, chatbots or virtual assistants, blast notifications, one-time passwords (OTPs), or PIN codes, and it can not be used for Whatsapp.
