What is an SMS broadcast message?
Businesses and organizations use SMS broadcasting—sometimes called mass texting or bulk SMS—to send alerts, share updates, automate transactions, and send out SMS marketing promotions.
While text broadcasts let you text hundreds of contacts at once, you can also have one-on-one conversations with those contacts using two-way messaging. Using both types of messaging allows you to deepen relationships with your audience and address any questions they may have.
Why SMS Broadcasts Are Essential for Mass Communication
SMS broadcasts provide businesses and organizations with a powerful tool for reaching large audiences efficiently. Unlike traditional communication channels, an SMS broadcast allows a single broadcast message to be sent to hundreds of thousands of recipients instantly, ensuring timely delivery. With an average 98% open rate, SMS broadcasts guarantee that your message is not only sent—but also seen and read within minutes.

Is SMS broadcast software compliant with regulations?
SMS broadcast software like SimpleTexting complies with industry regulations, and we provide our customers with resources to help them build compliant texting programs.
Before you send a broadcast text message, you must have your contacts’ express written consent first.
In North America, there are texting laws in place to protect people from spam and fraud. So even if you’ve already messaged them from your personal phone, you still need to collect proof that they want to receive texts from you.
The way you invite people to join your SMS broadcasting list legally is called an opt-in method.
These may include:
- Inviting them to text a keyword to your business number.
- Asking people to fill out an online web form.
- Checking a box next to the number field during the checkout process.
Each opt-in method should include a disclaimer about you and your texting program. For instance, you can place it at the bottom of a sign wherever you promote your SMS keyword, or include it in your signup form with a checkbox.
Your disclaimer should include:
- Your company’s name
- Your contact information
- What kind of texts contacts can expect to receive
- How they can unsubscribe
