Before you get started

Here are some key details to note about adding emojis to SMS campaigns:

  • Emoji characters normally take up more character space than 1 normal character. When you add an emoji to your campaign, your character limit will immediately be reduced to 70 characters instead of 160. This limitation is across all providers in all countries.
