SMS for Radio Stations
Run fundraising and membership renewal appeals, take listener requests on a live text-in line and confirm event RSVPs, all with two-way replies.
Built for how radio stations actually use SMS
Community and commercial radio stations run on listener support, and that support has a deadline. Mobile Message customers in this space send membership renewal and fundraising appeals with a hard cutoff tonight, take live song requests and shoutouts through a dedicated text-in line during broadcast, and confirm RSVPs for members' meetings and events with a simple reply.
Mobile Message charges from 1.6¢ per message with no monthly fees, so a big fundraising push doesn't blow the budget. Send your renewal appeal from your station's registered name, run a dedicated number as your on-air text line, and manage every listener reply from a shared inbox your presenters and volunteers can all see.
Fundraising and membership renewal appeals
Send a deadline-driven renewal or donation appeal with first-name personalisation and an opt-out, timed to end when your campaign does.
Member and event RSVP confirmations
