Why SMS over push notifications?

Card Icon

SMS notifications:

  • Don’t require an app or internet connection

  • Are read faster, with a 98% open rate within minutes

  • Effective for broader reach and urgency, especially for time-sensitive or critical messages

Card Icon

Push notifications:

  • Require users to install an app and opt-in

  • May be ignored or turned off, especially on mobile

  • Depend on internet access and OS-specific delivery rules

FAQs

Is an SMS notification the same as a text message?

How do I know if an SMS alert has been delivered?

With Kudosity, you get real-time delivery tracking and status reports via API or dashboard. Our platform ensures transparency, so you’ll know if a message was delivered, delayed, or failed. Start your 14-day SMS trial to see it in action.

SMS works well with email as it has a higher open rate. Anything can happen on an event day too, so it's also a great broadcast tool to have on hand because it's so much quicker to prepare and send.
