We’re excited to announce that we now offer SMS coverage in 12 countries, with plans to expand further throughout 2024.

Throughout the first half of 2024, we’ve extended our SMS support to a total of 12 countries, including recent additions like:

  • Austria
  • France
  • Germany
  • The Netherlands
  • Spain
  • Switzerland

We've also enhanced our SMS capabilities in Australia by adding MMS sending and two-way messaging via long codes. Here are some of the highlights: 

  • Easily add a new regional phone number
    • You can add local phone numbers directly in your account. 
    • You can have one Klaviyo account with several sending numbers for each country.
    • Klaviyo automatically detects where each recipient is located and sends messages using the appropriate number for that country. 
  • Choose the right sending number type for your business
  • Collect SMS consent seamlessly across countries
  • Send compliant text messages globally
    • Sending SMS messages globally requires attention to factors like messaging frequency, local regulations, and language preferences. We simplify this by allowing you to segment your audience by country and language, sending messages in the recipient's preferred language and local time. This enhances the customer experience and avoids compliance issues with quiet hours
