Reply from the comfort of

your email inbox

Using our forwarding feature, customer SMS responses come straight into your inbox. You can reply from your inbox and FireText will transform this into a text for your customer.

With every response, we can pull in your conversation thread from the last 7 days, so you can pick up where you left off.

Code-free integration

A great API alternative to integration, email to SMS allows any server or CRM system that can send an email to send a text to recipients. No developers required.

This is particularly handy when you want to send real-time alerts that may get missed in the email inbox. You can even send the content to your recipient's email and number at the same time.

Anatomy of Email to SMS

This is how Email to SMS works - from your favourite email client to your customer's phone.

1

Send to customer's number using number@sms.firetext.co.uk

2

Add your sender ID in the subject line. This will be the number or name that appears in your recipient's from field.

3

Cut out unnecessary content, such as your email footer, by simply finishing your message with a -- or ##.
