On her birthday, every year, without a calendar.
Everything on schedule, nothing on your to-do list
Set the audience, the message and the time once. The platform runs it from then on, with the same delivery tracking as any campaign.
- Five recurrence patterns
- Daily, weekly (pick the day), monthly (pick the date), annually (pick the day and month) or the last day of every month.
- Your time of day
- Each reminder goes out at the time you choose: fee reminders at 8 a.m., market updates before dawn, follow-ups after lunch.
- Contact group audiences
- Point a reminder at any contact group and everyone gets the message, with each contact's name filled in if you want.
- Per-recipient messages
- Or give every recipient their own pre-written message, with different amounts, dates and references per person, all sent together.
- CSV import
- Load hundreds of recipients with their personal messages, or anniversary contacts with their dates, from a plain CSV.
- Birthday & anniversary messages
- Store each contact's date once. The right message goes out on the right day, every year, with their name filled in.
- Promo before the day
- Send a promotional message a few days ahead of the anniversary: cake offers, gift discounts, renewal deals.
- Your sender ID
- Reminders arrive under your branded sender ID, or your team default, like every other message you send.
- Pause, resume, track
- Flip any reminder on or off instantly, and open the delivery report of every run straight from the reminder.

Personalisation
Same schedule, different message for every person
A loan-book reminder is not one message. It is hundreds of personal ones. Give each recipient their own text with their own amount and date, import the lot from CSV, and let the schedule do the rest.
- Per-recipient pre-written messages
- Group messages with {{name}} personalisation
- First-name or full-name formats
- CSV import with invalid rows flagged, not silently dropped

Hello Grace, your loan instalment of KES 3,250 is due on the 15th.
One reminder, imported from a CSV. Each person gets their own figures.

- Names filled in automatically

Peace of mind
Automation you can trust with your brand
Automatic doesn't mean unsupervised. Reminders respect your blacklist, bill transparently from your SMS balance, and leave a full audit trail of every run.
- Opt-outs honoured on every run
- Balance checked before each send; a failed run is shown, never hidden
- Pause and resume without rebuilding anything
- Pause without losing anything
- Switch a reminder off for the holidays and back on after. The schedule, audience and message stay put.
- Every run is a tracked campaign
- Each firing appears in your campaign history with a delivery report per person, so you can prove it went out.
- No double sends
- A reminder fires at most once a day, opted-out numbers are skipped, and each anniversary wish goes out once a year.
Live in four steps
- 01
Pick the schedule
Choose how often it repeats and what time of day it should fire.
- 02
Choose the audience
A contact group, or a list where every recipient has their own message.
- 03
Write it once
Compose the message, with {{name}} if you want it personal.
- 04
Let it run
It fires automatically from then on. Pause, edit or check delivery any time.
What teams use it for
Fee due-date reminders · Chama & SACCO contributions · Loan repayment reminders · Statutory payment deadlines · Medication & clinic reminders · Member & customer birthdays · Policy renewals & anniversaries
Questions people ask
What schedules are supported?
Daily, weekly (any day of the week), monthly (any date), yearly (any day and month) and end of month, each at the time of day you set. End of month handles short months, so a day-31 reminder does not skip February.
Can each person get a different message?
Yes, two ways. Group reminders can personalise with {{name}} (first or full name). Or use a recipient list, where every phone number has its own pre-written message, which suits amounts and dates that differ per person. Both import from CSV.
How do birthday messages work?
Create an anniversary group with your message and send time, then add contacts with their dates or import a CSV. Each contact receives the message on their month and day, every year, exactly once, with their name filled in. You can also add a promotional message that goes out a chosen number of days before.
What happens if my SMS balance runs out?
The run is skipped and recorded as a failed campaign with the reason shown. Nothing is sent partially and nothing retries behind your back. Top up and the next scheduled run goes out normally.
Can I pause a reminder without deleting it?
Yes. Every reminder and anniversary group has an on/off switch. Pausing keeps the schedule, audience and message intact, so you resume with one click.
