Add an image to your SMS campaigns (MMS)

This feature is currently available to users in the U.S.A. who have registered for a toll-free number via Telenyx. Only recipients in the U.S.A. will receive the complete MMS. Other recipients will only receive the text part as a regular SMS. 

Boost the impact of your SMS campaigns by adding an image that will catch your recipients' attention. 

Before you start 

  • You need to be based in the U.S.A. and register for a toll-free number to be able to send MMS campaigns.
    💡 Good to know

    Until your registration for a toll-free number is approved by our provider, you can send a maximum of:

    • 2,000 SMS or MMS/day,
    • 6,000 SMS or MMS/week, and
    • 10,000 SMS or MMS/month. 
  • Only Telenyx-registered toll-free numbers can use our MMS feature. If you already have a toll-free number, ensure it is registered via Telenyx. Contact our support team if you’re unsure which provider registered your toll-free number.
  • Follow our best practices to ensure the best SMS deliverability.
