SMS Blast FAQ

An SMS blast is a mass send of the same text message to many recipients simultaneously. It’s ideal for urgent alerts, flash sales and timely reminders.

Yes—provided each recipient has opted in, the sender is clearly identified and an opt-out is offered under the Spam Act 2003. Mobile Message’s SMS blast service helps automate compliance by handling opt-outs automatically.

Popular uses include flash sales, appointment reminders, emergency alerts, internal communications and quick customer surveys. See more examples in our use-case section.

Messages generally reach Australian mobiles in a few seconds—even with large recipient lists.

There’s no fixed upper limit. Messages are submitted to Australian carriers at a sustained rate of over 400 per second, so a 50,000-message blast is typically fully submitted within about two minutes.

Bulk SMS can include personalised or varied messages, whereas an SMS blast sends one identical message to all recipients simultaneously. Both options are available on our bulk-SMS platform.

Your first purchase is 1.6¢ per SMS at any volume, then standard rates run from 2¢ to 4¢. There are no setup or monthly fees, and you pay solely based on the volume you send. View the full breakdown on our pricing page.

Every blast can include an opt-out, no matter which sender you use: recipients reply STOP when you send from a dedicated number, or tap an opt-out link when you send from your business name. Mobile Message processes both automatically and removes opted-out numbers from future sends.

Yes. You can schedule blasts hours, days or weeks ahead and the platform will deliver them at your chosen time.
