Prerequisites 

There are a few things to be sure of before considering enabling and using the PrimeCall texting service:

  1. The telephone number must have SMS/MMS messaging enabled by our technical support team. 

    NOTE: You will need to be the owner of the account to enable the service with our Technical Support team.

  2. Your business must have a registered SMS Campaign.

    Quick Tip: To learn more about registering a SMS campaign to allow for texting, read this article.

  3. The telephone number to be used for texting must be in service with a carrier that PrimeCall partners with that allows SMS/MMS services

    Note: In some cases, it may be necessary to port a number over to a carrier that allows SMS messaging in your area.

    Carrier availability may be restricted by location.

  4. Only one number can be used for texting per account. This can be thought of as having "Company X" texting customers instead of each agent.
