When you send SMS in New Zealand, your messages come from a TNZ Short Code, a 4-digit number like 3003. One is assigned to you automatically based on your message type. It's instant and included in your plan.

Most businesses start here. Built-in Short Codes work well for appointment reminders, alerts, and general business messaging, with no setup required.

If you're running keyword campaigns (e.g. "Text INFO to 3003"), want full inbound SMS from any NZ mobile, or are building long-term brand recognition, a Dedicated Short Code gives you exclusive ownership of your number.

Quick, effective communication

The simplest way to stay in touch

simplest-way-to-stay-in-touch

Business SMS lets you contact customers instantly, wherever they are. Because users receive messages direct to their phones, they're less likely to miss or ignore them - most text messages are read and replied to within five minutes.

Faster workflow, more free time

Switching your communication to SMS frees up time spent sending individual messages, making phone calls and chasing up customer replies.

Insights through SMS Replies

insights-through-sms

Email to SMS includes built-in reporting options - you'll know who hasn't opened your messages, whether they reply and how long it takes - giving you valuable insight. Two-way communication means mobiles can reply to your message from their phone, and you'll receive the reply in your email inbox.
