Creating and sending multiple auto-replies

Creating and sending multiple auto-replies

When activating a tag as a keyword auto-reply, you can also set up additional auto-replies to be sent out after the first auto-reply is delivered. You can create up to 10 additional auto-replies as needed.

Note: A credit will be deducted from your balance each time a user texts a tag regardless if it is set up as a keyword auto-reply or not. A credit will also be used for each auto-reply sent.
