What are SMS keywords?
An SMS keyword is a word or short phrase that your customers text to a specific phone number to subscribe to your marketing messages. These keywords act as a bridge between your target audience and your marketing campaigns, allowing them to opt-in to receive updates, promotions, and other valuable information directly on their mobile devices.

Here are some examples of how businesses can leverage SMS keywords:
Restaurants
