Enable Push Notifications


Push Notifications allow you to send a message to everyone who has your app installed, for example to remind them of an event, or that your live stream is starting.

A Push Notification appears on users' devices in a similar way to a text message, offering a very cost effective replacement to expensive messaging solutions.

Here’s How:

  1. Ensure you have Push Notifications enabled in your subscription. 

    1. Head over to Subscriptions, located under your Account Menu (Click your name in the top right of your screen),

    2. See if Push Notifications is listed under 'Active Services'. If so, move onto No.2,

    3. If not, look for the 'Engage Bundle' under Available Services,

    4. Click 'Add' to this module, and the feature will be added to your account.

  2. Browse to Notifications, under the Manage Menu (in the top right of your screen)

  3. Ensure you have at least one Notification Topic, under Notification Topics. (Learn how at Push Notifications).

  4. Click  Notification to Send or Schedule your first Notification.

    1. If you're still in the Notification Managment Page (Manage > Notifications), simply click  Notification.

    2. In the future, this is easily selected on the homepage of your dashboard and Push Notifications has detailed instructions on how to do this.
      Idea: For a first test message, you could send a 'Welcome to our app' type message. This will show in Notification History for 7 days.
