Can recipients see the message originator name/number and reply?
A personalised gateway needs to be enabled by SMS Speedway along with reply-back ability Various levels are available, with the exclusive two-way plan offering both the personalised gateway and reply-back functionality Plans available:
If the personalised gateway is not enabled, then the message originator is shown as a generic number If reply-backs are not enabled and a text message recipient replies to any texts generated, their text reply is converted to an email message and sent back to the negotiator who initiated the sending of the text message (or their office inbox, depending on configuration) If an email address is not set-up within Reapit, it will return to the email address stored by SMS Speedway |
