Send targeted TXT messages to your contacts directly from UbiQuity — from simple one-off sends to multi-step automated programmes.
UbiQuity TXT is a fully featured TXT messaging channel built into the UbiQuity platform. You can send one-off TXT Outs to your database contacts, set up automated TXT Outs triggered by date-based conditions, or build multi-step inbound TXT programmes that respond to messages your contacts send in.
Because TXT is managed alongside your other channels in UbiQuity, you can segment your audience using the same database contacts and filters you use for email and push notifications. You can also combine channels — for example, sending a TXT when an email bounces.
UbiQuity TXT uses dedicated shortcodes registered with all carriers in New Zealand. The UbiQuity team will work with you to get your shortcode set up before you can start sending.

UbiQuity TXT supports New Zealand mobile numbers via shortcodes registered with all NZ carriers. If you need to send to international numbers, an international long code is required — contact UbiQuity to arrange this.
TXT messaging in New Zealand is governed by the Unsolicited Electronic Messages Act 2007, administered by the Department of Internal Affairs. You are responsible for ensuring your TXT communications comply with all applicable legislation. See TXT Message Guidelines for a summary of key requirements.
If you prefer to integrate programmatically, the UbiQuity API supports sending and receiving TXT messages. Once your account is set up for TXT, contact UbiQuity to register your endpoint. Inbound messages will be passed through to your endpoint, and you can send messages via the API. See the UbiQuity API documentation for details.
