Set up Text Message Alerts for New Form Submissions

If you have a Marketing 360® form on your website used to capture leads, then you can also set up a notification that sends you a text message every time you receive a form submission.

To set up text alerts for form submission:

  1. On the Forms app, click on the form that you would like to set up the notification for.
  2. Select Settings towards the top of the page.

  4. A pop-up will appear. In the Name field, enter a label for the notification (for example, "Text Message Notification").
  5. You will be asked to enter an email address in the Email field. Each major phone carrier has its own unique email suffix for sending text notifications. The chart below shows the email address for each major carrier:

    Alltel xxxxxxxxxx@message.alltel.com
    AT&T xxxxxxxxxx@txt.att.net
    Boost Mobile xxxxxxxxxx@myboostmobile.com
    Carolina West Wireless xxxxxxxxxx@cwwsms.com
    Cellular One xxxxxxxxxx@mobile.celloneusa.com
    Cricket

    xxxxxxxxxx@mms.cricketwireless.net

    Illinois Valley Cellular

    xxxxxxxxxx@ivctext.com

    Inland Cellular Telephone

    xxxxxxxxxx@inlandlink.com

    Metro PCS

    xxxxxxxxxx@mymetropcs.com

    Nextel xxxxxxxxxx@messaging.nextel.com
    Sprint xxxxxxxxxx@messaging.sprintpcs.com
    T-Mobile xxxxxxxxxx@tmomail.net
    US Cellular xxxxxxxxxx@mms.uscc.net
    Verizon and Straight Talk Wireless xxxxxxxxxx@vtext.com
    Virgin Mobile xxxxxxxxxx@vmobl.com

    If your carrier is not listed in the chart above, you can find your mobile email address on your own: Send a text message to your email address. Open the email; the email address in the From: field is the mobile email address you can use to receive texts.

    Replace the xxxxxxxxxx with your 10-digit phone number (including area code) with no spaces in between. The screenshot below shows an example of how this should look:

Your text message notification should now be set up. You may want to submit a "test" form submission on the form to see if you receive the notification on your phone.
