Activating SMS in your account

    How to brand your sender name

    When your SMS messages are delivered to your customers' phones, the default sender will appear as LoveAdmin. However, if you prefer to have your organisation's name displayed as the sender, you can easily purchase the Branded Sender Name service for a monthly subscription fee of £12 (inc. VAT).

    To initiate your subscription, simply click on the "Change Sender Name" option and make the purchase through the shop.
