FAQ's
How do you send a text poll?
To send an SMS vote, participants simply text a keyword and their chosen option to a designated short code provided by the TXTImpact platform. The organizer sets up the SMS polling campaign through their TXTImpact account, and votes are collected in real time. Results can be viewed instantly on the dashboard, mobile devices, or projected on a screen at the event.
Can I send a survey in a text?
Yes, you can send a survey via text using TXTImpact’s SMS Survey feature. It allows you to create and send multi-question surveys directly to mobile phones. Recipients can respond to each question via text, and their answers are collected and tracked in real time through your TXTImpact dashboard.
How do you create a text poll in a group chat?
TXTImpact doesn’t support traditional group chat-style polls like WhatsApp or iMessage. However, you can create an interactive text poll with ease. Simply set up a Text-to-Vote campaign and assign specific keywords to each voting option. Share the instructions with your group, and participants can text their votes to a short code or assigned number. Responses are tracked in real time, and results are accessible via your dashboard or can be displayed live.
How many people can participate in an SMS Poll?
There’s no limit to the number of participants in an SMS Poll. Whether you're engaging a small group or running a large-scale poll, TXTImpact can handle high volumes of responses.
How do I view the results of an SMS Poll?
The results are automatically collected in real-time and can be accessed through the TXTImpact dashboard. You can also display the results live on a screen during your event for immediate engagement.
Is there a cost for each SMS vote?
SMS voting on TXTImpact is credit-based. Each message sent under 160 characters uses one credit. For example, if you’re running a poll with 500 participants and each person casts a vote and receives a confirmation message (both under 160 characters), you’ll need at least 500 text credits. This system helps you estimate and manage your usage efficiently based on audience size and message length.
