Key Benefits of SMS Travel Marketing Strategies
Last minute changes, such as flight cancellations or delays and booking issues that are not resolved swiftly, will result in customer dissatisfaction. SMS is a great way to offer support and inform customers about the latest updates.
Promote last-minute deals
Last minute changes happen all the time in the travel industry. The fastest way to profit from them is by texting customers with a hot deal.
Incredible return-on-investment (ROI)
Travel SMS marketing is a cheap but extremely targeted means of promotion. Sending personalized messages to customers will engage them and, ultimately, boost sales.
Increased customer satisfaction
SMS for customer service has been receiving a lot of attention because it’s fast, reliable and personal. In an industry where customer satisfaction is a must, SMS becomes vital.
Grow your customer database
Generating new contacts has never been easier. All you have to do is send travel deals through SMS and provide a number with a keyword so that clients can opt in for more special offers.

The best way to send automatic travel texts with flight information, hotel booking numbers, and other relevant data is by integrating our SMS API with your booking software. TextMagic is a tool for sending messages. The logic behind that message is completely up to you. With coding knowledge, it is possible to automatically send custom information.
We will accept requests for messages with whatever content you choose to forward. Here’s how you can quickly set-up the SMS API:
Step #1: Obtain your SMS API credentials. The login credentials are different from the API credentials. As noted, TextMagic has two APIs, and your V1 key will not be compatible with the REST API. To integrate the rest API please create a new key for the V2 endpoint.
Step #2: Connect to the API endpoint via https://rest.textmagic.com/api/v2 (see full documentation).
Step #3: Use the TextMagic sandbox before you start working on the code.
Please read the full documentation for our SMS API before you make any changes to your campaign.
