For SMS and messaging marketers
Texts that look like you sent them
Carriers and spam filters distrust shared short domains; a link on your own domain doesn’t look like spam. When WhatsApp or iMessage fetches a link to draw its preview, that’s counted apart, not as a click. Promo over on Sunday? The link expires into your next offer.

What you’ll use
- Custom domainsLinks on your own domain look like they came from you, not from a shared shortener that carriers and spam filters have learned to distrust.
- Expiring linksGive a promo an end date and send late taps to the next offer instead of a dead page.
- Social previewsSet the title, image and description that WhatsApp, Telegram and others show in the chat before anyone taps.
- AnalyticsPreview fetches from WhatsApp, iMessage and Telegram are counted apart, so a click means someone tapped.
