Each SMS message costs one zkipster credit and can contain up to 160 characters as standard. A character counter in the composer makes it easy to keep track of how many credits you’re using per SMS send.
Add dynamic tags to personalize your SMS invites with guest details, send notifications about important event information, and gather responses via RSVP forms. 
Link to attachments - PDFs of email invitations you’ve created in zkipster, images you’ve uploaded, QR codes for SMS invites - using attachment URL tags. URLs are automatically shortened to minimize your character count.
No need to skimp on the details: each WhatsApp message costs one zkipster credit and can contain up to 4,000 characters.
Use dynamic tags to customize your invitation templates, share event details and link to response forms. In WhatsApp, your PDF, image and QR code attachments are displayed in the body of the message for an interactive, immersive guest experience.
WhatsApp’s rigorous privacy, security and compliance practices mean that all guests must opt-in to receive event messages. This gives senders a nuanced view of audience engagement from the first campaign touchpoint.

With the powerful zkipster Communications Suite you can build modular, multi-faceted campaigns using a combination of emails, SMS and WhatsApp plus response forms, and contact different guest lists and segments via different channels.
Set up conditional SMS or WhatsApp messages to be sent when guests confirm or decline your event invitation, including custom QR codes for event check-in and more.
Harness the versatility and immediacy of SMS and WhatsApp by using the channels to communicate important information to guests whilst your event is happening.

All the event communications you need

Build custom, modular campaigns that combine SMS, WhatsApp, email and forms. Effortlessly invite, inform and connect with guests, request consent and important information from them, and track RSVPs. When event day arrives, alert staff in real time as VIPs arrive and inform guests of their table number as they check-in. All designed, sent, and managed with the zkipster Communications Suite.

Track the deliverability of your WhatsApp and SMS invites via a clear status dashboard that alerts you to any sending errors, with the ability to adjust incorrect phone numbers and resend.
Connect zkipster’s other features with your SMS and WhatsApp invite lists for a seamless, dynamic event management flow from communications to seating, check-in to reporting, and easily export your lists to use with other tools.
Account admins can select which users should have the ability to send SMS and WhatsApp. Users without sending permission will still be able to create campaigns and send test messages, but won’t be able to activate a campaign containing SMS and WhatsApp.

Your trusted third-party for event communications

zkipster underwent a rigorous authentication and compliance process to qualify as a WhatsApp Official Business Account and a verified A2P compliant messaging service for SMS, so our clients can connect with their guests confidently and securely, at scale.

 

Certain restrictions and recommendations apply when contacting guests via SMS and WhatsApp, but we’re here to help senders ensure they’re compliant and following the best practices to ensure maximum engagement.
