You can absolutely add links to your broadcast! And better yet, we can help you make them branded Subtext short links!

How do I incorporate links within my broadcast?

Here’s a couple different ways you can incorporate them.

• Within the body of a text: You can put a link anywhere in the body of a text and it will appear as the standard branded short link. 
• At the end of your text: If you put a link as the last line of a broadcast and your subscriber has your contact card saved, the carrier will automatically create a preview of the link that’ll show in line with the text. We highly recommend this experience especially if linking to videos as it makes for a great user experience!
