1. What is Mass texting?
Mass texting refers to the process of sending a single text message to a large group of people at once. This can be done through various software and platforms that allow users to upload a list of phone numbers and send a text message to all of them simultaneously. Mass texting is often used for marketing and promotional purposes, as well as for sending important notifications or updates to a large group of people.

Do not confuse group texting with mass texting. Group texts are typically P2P and allow everyone to see the other users.
Mass texting on the other hand is typically application-to-person (A2P) or business-to-person (B2P) and only allows individual users to see the sender.
2. How does Mass texting work?
A typical mass texting campaign on any platform consists of 3 steps:
- Upload a list with the names and numbers of users you want to contact
- Add a message you want to send to existing or potential customers
- Choose when to send the message to the users on the contact list
