■ About message delivery via SMS
Emails have an open rate of 20% and a click rate of 1% to 4%, while SMS has an open rate of 80% and a click rate of 15% to 20%.
The average number of SMS messages received per year is about 5, so they do not get buried in the inbox like emails. In addition, SMS is currently often used as a means of two-step authentication to use membership services and apps, so it is recognized as a channel that delivers necessary information, and pop-ups tend not to be turned off. Therefore, messages are seen immediately when they arrive, and the rate at which they are opened is high.
However, just like email, when SMS receives a large number of messages, there is a possibility that the recipient will hide the pop-up or delete it without opening it. Therefore, in order to maintain a high SMS open rate, it is necessary to send only messages that the recipient absolutely must read, such as reservation reminders, delivery notifications, and arrival notifications.
