How to personalize an SMS message


  • Navigate to the Messaging menu
  • Choose the Messages tab
  • Click New Message and choose SMS, or edit an SMS draft
  • In the Message text box, compose your message. 
  • Click Insert dynamic tag
  • Click Add dynamic tags


  • Click Download this CSV file, to export a file containing the list of recipients for this message. Note that this exact file must be used.


  • To add a custom tag, like a unique code or unique URL, add and label a new column in the CSV file, then add the values for each contact. You can add multiple columns with values.
  • Save the file once populated.


  • Drag and drop the saved file into the drop box, or click to browse and upload the file from your saved location.


  • Click Import fields


  • You can now add the fields to your message. Place your cursor in the spot where you would like to add the personalization field.
