Sending a Test Message

Learn how to send a test text from a campaign to your own phone before it goes live.

Written by Support Team

You can send a test from any campaign to see how your message looks on a real phone. Test messages don't count toward billing or your analytics.

Step 1: Open your campaign

In the left sidebar, click Campaigns, then click the name of the campaign you want to test. The campaign opens in the builder.

Step 2: Save your messages

The test uses your saved messages. If you changed a message, click Save under it first.

Step 3: Open Send Test

Click the Send Test icon on the left side of the builder. The Send Test panel opens.

Step 4: Enter your phone number

In Phone Number, type your mobile number with a plus sign and country code, for example +14155551234. If the format is wrong, you'll see Use E.164 format (e.g. +14155551234) under the field.

Step 5: Send it

Click Send Test. You'll see a confirmation that the test was sent, and the text arrives on your phone shortly after.

💡 Test messages are flagged as tests, so they are left out of your metrics and billing.

⚠️ A test fills your variables with sample details, like a sample customer name and product. It sends the message text only, so images and a real discount code are not included.

For the full campaign setup, see Creating a Campaign.
