Here we will show you how to send a bulk SMS to your customers

There are two ways to send a bulk SMS to your customers, one depends on you already having SMS turned on in SAM, the other does not.

• SMS Setup Guide
• Sending SMS individual messages
• Sign-up to SMS - with the first three months free*

* Offer may not always be available - click on the link for further details

NB: You can still use the second method even if you have SMS turned on if you wish

1. With SMS turned on

- This will use your package SMS messages
- You need to be on or above version 6.016

Go to Help (1) > About (2) and check the Version (3)

This must be greater than or equal to 6.016

If you are not on this version - check for updates via the Help menu

Send the message
