An overview of SMS notifications

Send your members automated SMS messages from TeamUp. How much do SMS notifications cost on TeamUp?

TeamUp's SMS feature enables you to send instant updates for waitlist changes, class/appointment registration confirmations, class/appointment changes or cancellations, and pre-class/appointment reminders.

You can easily keep track of your automated messages from the SMS Messages report. This report lists all SMS messages sent to customers during any given timeframe.

🔔 Please note that this is an add-on feature. A per SMS message rate applies, and you will be billed on a monthly basis with your TeamUp subscription. You can enable/disable this feature at any time.

Supported integrations and countries

Our SMS feature supports the following integrations:

  • Spain, France, Germany, Ireland, Netherlands
  • United Kingdom
  • Canada 
  • United States

Spain, France, Germany, Ireland, and the Netherlands

If you're located in one of these countries, SMS messages can't be sent from a standard phone number;  they require setting up an Alphanumeric Sender ID

📱An Alphanumeric Sender ID is your company name or brand used as the Sender ID in one-way SMS messages. 


We will auto-generate a number for you, but you can change it to whatever you want. We recommend using your business name so your members know the message is coming from you vs. an unknown number.

Alphanumeric SMS settings in TeamUp

Please note that due to Europe's SMS compliance regulations, we are not able to support two-way messaging for European countries.
