Channel - SMS
SMS survey invites have a character limit
One SMS text message can contain a maximum of 160 characters, including the survey link i.e. 137 character message + 23 character survey link.
It’s important that the customer’s message and survey link are within the character limit. If the message exceeds the 1 x SMS character limit, the customer will incur the cost of any additional SMS message(s).
It is the customer’s commercial responsibility to check and confirm their approval of the message length as part of SMS survey design, testing and approval. Failure to do so may incur unanticipated SMS charges (i.e. if 2 messages are sent instead of one, SMS charges will double).
