Push Notifications
What are push notifications?
Push notifications are branded messages tied to your app that are prominently displayed to your users and can easily be dismissed. With our app, you can define what happens when someone clicks on the notification. For example, you could send a notification about an upcoming Parents' Night Out and have the notification take users to a Parents' Night Out page in the app where they can quickly enroll.
How is a push notification different than a text?
A text is a personal message where promotional content is not welcome. A push notification is a branded message with a call to action. Some examples of a call to action are enrollment, viewing more descriptive content, viewing a team calendar, or getting directions. Notifications can be used for promotions, good-will messages, weather related closings, team updates, and much more. Push notifications have become the most effective way of communicating with your customers. More effective than email, printed flyers, and texts.
How difficult is it to send a push notification?
Not at all. Login to your dashboard, type your message, select a call to action (if any), click send. You can even send a push from your mobile phone.
