Frequently Asked Questions
Find quick answers to common questions about buying units, sender IDs, DND bypass, message deliverability, and developer APIs.
What is Bulk SMS and how does it benefit my business?
Bulk SMS allows you to send a single text message to thousands or millions of mobile phone numbers simultaneously within seconds. With a 98%+ open rate within 3 minutes of delivery, it is the most direct, cost-effective, and high-converting marketing and customer communication channel available today.
Do purchased SMS units ever expire?
No. Your messaging units have lifetime validity. Once purchased, they remain securely credited to your wallet balance until you decide to use them, whether tomorrow, next month, or next year.
How does Do-Not-Disturb (DND) delivery work on your platform?
Exwhyzee utilizes direct hosted corporate gateways that automatically route messages through prioritized telecommunications channels to deliver your broadcasts even to numbers with active DND (Do-Not-Disturb) restrictions at zero extra penalty.
How many characters equal 1 SMS page?
A standard text message contains up to 160 characters (including spaces and punctuation) for the 1st page. When a message exceeds 160 characters, it concatenates into a multi-part message where each subsequent page is calculated at 153 characters according to international GSM telecommunications standards.
What payment methods can I use to top up my wallet?

How can I register a custom Sender ID?

YourBrand, GraceChurch, ApexSchool). You can specify your sender ID when composing messages. For corporate or financial institution sender IDs requiring official carrier pre-registration, contact our support team or submit your request via your client dashboard.
