Quick Answer

Event SMS is messaging used by event managers, wedding planners, conference organisers and venues to send invitations, RSVP requests, mobile tickets, schedule changes and feedback surveys. SMSGatewayHub provides bulk and personalised SMS, short code and long code keywords for RSVPs, WhatsApp and RCS for rich invites, and voice calls, all on Pay As You Go pricing.

How does SMS change the way events are managed?

Events run on tight timelines and last-minute changes. SMS lets you cut out intermediaries and reach attendees directly, whether to promote an event, collect RSVPs, send tickets or gauge feedback. SMSGatewayHub gives event teams trackable campaigns, mobile tickets, survey links and keyword replies on one platform.

Use promotional SMS to announce shows and early-bird offers, service and transactional SMS for booking confirmations, tickets and venue alerts, and personalised SMS to address every guest by name.

Event lifecycle messaging workflow

  1. Announce

    Send the invite or promotion with a brochure link, schedule or booth layout to your opt-in database.

  2. Collect RSVPs

    Guests reply with a keyword to your short code or long code, fill a mobile form, or give a missed call.

  3. Issue tickets

    Each registrant receives a single-screen mobile ticket or pass that can be scanned at the venue.

  4. Remind and update

    Send reminders the day before and instant alerts for delays, cancellations or venue changes.

  5. Collect feedback

    Send a survey link as soon as the event ends, while the experience is fresh.

Promote events and share brochures, webpage links or booth layouts with your opt-in database.

Timely event alerts

Alert attendees to delays, cancellations, venue changes or last-minute offers.

Rich invites with WhatsApp, RCS and voice

WhatsApp invites and tickets

Send invitation cards, location pins and tickets through the WhatsApp Business API, with RSVP buttons.

RCS rich cards

Branded RCS messages with images, carousels and Book Now buttons, falling back to SMS.

Voice invitations

Record a personal invitation or reminder and deliver it as a voice SMS to guests who prefer calls.

Scaling from one wedding to a national tour

A wedding planner may send a few hundred personalised invites; a concert promoter may message lakhs of fans across cities. SMSGatewayHub handles both with Excel uploads and scheduling in the panel, or API integration with your ticketing or registration system. Sub-user accounts let each event team work independently with locked templates.

Event organisers often work alongside agencies and retailers, so see the advertising agency and travel and tourism case studies. For campaign ideas, read bulk SMS example message templates.
