SMS journey — flow diagram and message preview

What it is

Unlike WhatsApp, SMS doesn't require a pre-approved template — it's free-form text. Inside Flowly, you write the message and drop in placeholders like {{name}} to make every message dynamically personal for each recipient. The SMS step lives in the same visual journey editor as every other channel — audiences, segments and behavioral events flow in directly, with no separate integration or CSV import required.

How it works

  1. 01

    Write your message

    SMS is free-form text — no pre-approval needed, just write the message your audience should get.

  2. 02

    Personalize with placeholders

    Drop in placeholders like {{name}} to make every message dynamically personal, mapped straight from user data.

  3. 03

    Drop it into any journey

    Connect the SMS node after a Trigger, a Check Condition, or a Wait step — no separate integration needed.

  4. 04

    Launch and track performance

    Node-level metrics show how this exact SMS step is performing within the journey.

Where it fits in a journey

An SMS step can follow a Trigger, a Check Condition, or a Wait — and every journey must end in a Notification or Action step, so SMS is a valid finish line too.

Comes after

  • Trigger
  • Check Condition
  • Wait
SMS

Can lead to

  • Check Condition
  • Wait
  • End

EXAMPLE — FROM THE DOC

Recurring re-engagement for quiet users

  1. Segment
  2. Check Condition (no login in 7 days?)
  3. TRUE branch
  4. SMS
  5. End

The journey repeats weekly — every week, the segment is re-checked and only users who are still inactive get another SMS.

Why teams use it

  • One editor, every channel

    SMS sits in the same journey builder as WhatsApp, Push, Email and Bonus actions — no separate tool to learn or maintain.

  • Segment logic you already trust

    Check Condition reuses the exact same filtering logic as B2Metric Segmentation — nothing new to learn.

  • One-off or recurring, your call

    Trigger SMS on a live event, or run it as part of a daily, weekly or monthly recurring re-engagement journey.

  • Delivered through trusted partners

    SMS sends route through third-party delivery providers — integrations with Infobip and Telesign are underway today.

Built for

Companies with high message volume and behavior-led communication needs get the most out of the SMS channel — especially teams already running push/SMS/WhatsApp/email together in the same journey.

  • E-commerce & retail
  • Gaming, betting & loyalty
  • Fintech
  • Mobile-first apps
