TextBox overview

What is TextBox?

TextBox is a service that text-enables existing business landline, VoIP & toll-free telephone numbers for two-way text communications with customers. A particularly useful tool for apartment communities, sales and repair shops, advertisers, and medical officers, TextBox is not a mass text marketing platform but rather a 1:1 communications platform that also supports small group delivery.

Accessible from virtually any internet-enabled device, TextBox leverages the value of a business's existing telephone number which is part of the business brand, value and identity. Activating a number has no impact on existing telephone equipment or services. True 2-way communication.
