URL SHORTENING

Short URLs turn long web addresses into compact links for your messages. Save space in the SMS text and direct recipients to the page you have chosen.

Short web links for SMS

More room for your message

Product, category and offer URLs can contain many characters. A short URL reduces the space used by the link while keeping the selected destination.

Compact links

Replace a long address with a shorter link inside the message.

Campaign links

Create links for the individual campaigns you organise.

Recipient links

Create a separate short URL for each recipient when needed.

How it works

  1. Choose the destination page.
  2. Create a short link for that address.
  3. Add the link to your message.
  4. Check that it opens correctly on a phone before sending.
Example link format: 767.gr/Xv56a
This illustrates the format and is not a link to a current offer.

Use it with your preferred sending method

URL shortening is available through Hermes, WEB API, SMPP and Mail2SMS. For integration with your own software, explore the SMS Gateway.

Frequently asked questions

Will shortening a link always reduce the message charge?

It reduces the characters used by the link. The number of billable SMS segments still depends on the length and encoding of the complete message.

Can I track link clicks?

See Click Monitoring for information about tracking responses to links in your campaigns.

Can the link point to my e-shop?

Yes, you can choose a web page such as a product or offer page. Check the destination content and its mobile experience before using it in a campaign.
