    The business case

    Why Businesses Choose MMS Messaging

    Higher engagement

    Visual content gets noticed faster than plain text, driving stronger open and response rates.

    Stronger brand recall

    A picture, logo, or video sticks with customers longer than words alone.

    Faster communication

    Show a product, receipt, map, or instructions instead of describing them in text.

    Better conversion potential

    A visual offer or coupon is easier to act on than a text-only promo code.

    Improved customer experience

    Customers see exactly what you mean, reducing back-and-forth and confusion.

    A competitive edge

    Most businesses still rely on plain SMS — MMS helps you stand out in a crowded inbox.

    Questions

    MMS Messaging FAQs

    What is MMS messaging?

    MMS lets you send images, video, audio, and longer text to mobile phones — unlike SMS, which is limited to plain text.

    How is MMS different from SMS?

    SMS is text-only, capped at 160 characters. MMS supports images, video, audio, and GIFs, with up to 1,600 characters.

    Is MMS available outside the US and Canada?

    MMS delivery is currently available for recipients in the United States and Canada. SMS reaches most countries worldwide.

    Can I send MMS through an API?

    Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aenean commodo ligula eget dolor. Aenean massa.

    What happens if my text is longer than 1,600 characters?

    It's automatically converted and sent as an MMS, so long messages go out in one cost-efficient send instead of splitting into multiple SMS segments.

    What file types can I send via MMS?

    Images (JPG, PNG, GIF), video (MP4, 3GP), and audio (MP3, WAV). Keep images under 500KB and videos under 5MB for the most reliable delivery.

    Does MMS deliver as fast as SMS?

    MMS can take slightly longer due to larger file sizes, and some carriers filter multimedia content. Our delivery infrastructure is optimized to maximize success rates.
