How it works - Local Phone Numbers
SMS messages are sent from automations.
When a contact from any of the countries supported with a local number enters your automation and hits your “Send SMS” action, our SMS provider will select a “from” number that matches your contact’s country and that same number will be used to distribute your message.
For example, if a contact located in United Kingdom enters your SMS automation and encounters your SMS step, a United Kingdom phone number will be used to send the SMS and 5 credits will be deducted from your account.
The “From” phone numbers are chosen by our SMS provider and will vary.
How it works - Non-Local Phone Numbers
SMS messages are sent from automations.
If the contact is not located in any of the countries supported with a local number, a phone number from the United States will be selected and used to distribute your message.
For example, if a contact located in Brazil enters your SMS automation and encounters your SMS step, a U.S. phone number will be used to send the SMS message and 7 credits will be deducted from your account.
The “From” phone numbers are chosen by our SMS provider and will vary.
