Text Message and Email Builders in Rinsed

An overview of the text message and email builders in the Rinsed platform.

Text Messages

There are a few features to point out in our Text Message builder: 

1. Emojis: You can copy/paste emojis into text messages. Or, follow these instructions for Windows, or these for Mac. 
   1. Be aware that a single segment is reduced to 70 characters (instead of 160) when using emojis. See <Segments> for more information.

• Dynamic fields: Type the @ symbol to pull up a list of variables/dynamic fields. These will be replaced by dynamic content when the message is sent. 

• Short links: If enabled, Rinsed will create shortened, trackable links out of any links included in your message.

• Images: Attach images up to 5 MB maximum. Note that images will be counted as additional segments. 

• Voucher type: Select a voucher type to include a barcode image of any particular voucher that you’ve uploaded into Rinsed. We recommend including both the written voucher code using the dynamic field, AND the barcode image.
