Frequently asked questions about business SMS
What is TextingHouse?
TextingHouse is a business SMS platform. You use it from your browser (extension for Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Opera), from HubSpot or from your software through the API, to send SMS one at a time or in bulk, schedule them and track their delivery.
How do I send business SMS online?
Install the TextingHouse extension on your computer, import your contacts, write your message, then send it or schedule it. To automate your sending, connect HubSpot or Zapier, or integrate the API into your software.
Can I send an SMS to several recipients?
Yes. Import a contact file and send your message to the whole list, with personalised content for each person. Every recipient receives their own SMS: no group conversation is created.
How much does it cost to send an SMS?
The price depends on the destination and on the volume of credits you buy, with no subscription or commitment. See the Pricing page for the up-to-date price for each country.
Which countries can I send SMS to?
More than 150 countries and territories across Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Asia and the Americas. The up-to-date list of destinations and prices is on the Pricing page.
Can I send SMS with my company name?
Yes, depending on the destination and the country’s rules: some countries, such as the United States and Canada, don’t allow sender customisation. You choose a sender name of up to 11 characters, which appears instead of a number on your recipients’ phones.
What is the difference between transactional and marketing SMS?
A transactional SMS carries information the recipient expects: order confirmation, appointment reminder, alert, verification code. A marketing SMS has a commercial purpose: promotion, offer, invitation to a sales event. A marketing SMS must let the recipient opt out, and it is subject to sending hours.
At what times are SMS sent?
It depends on the type of SMS. Transactional SMS are sent at any time, with no restriction. Marketing SMS go out Monday to Friday from 8 am to 8 pm and on Saturday from 10 am to 3 pm, in the recipient’s local time. A marketing SMS scheduled outside these hours is sent automatically at the next permitted time.
Can I use TextingHouse from a phone?
The extension runs on a computer, PC or Mac. Your recipients receive a standard SMS on their phone, with no app to install.
Does the “delivered” status mean the SMS has been read?
No. It means the SMS has reached the recipient’s phone, not that it has been read.
How can I try TextingHouse for free?
Install the extension in your browser: your account is created with 10 free SMS, with no commitment. With the API, sending to the number 999 lets you test your integration for free.
