Can I use my phone number as Caller ID for text messages?

Within the US and Canada, you cannot use your phone number as a Caller ID for sending messages in SMS campaigns. You'll have to rent a number from us.

Outside the US and Canada, you can use any validated phone number as the caller ID. When you use a validated number as a caller ID, all replies will come back to that number.

You will need to rent a number only when you want replies to come back into your account. When replies come back into your account, the software can do additional things like,

• Measure campaign effectiveness by automatic classification of messages
• Send automatic responses based on keywords in the replies
• Handle opt-out responses by removing the contact from future SMS campaigns
