Heymarket Group Messaging

  • Updated

Introduction

Heymarket supports Group SMS/MMS, enabling you to communicate with multiple contacts simultaneously within a single conversation thread.

This feature allows all participants to read and respond to each other's messages in real-time, streamlining group coordination and discussions. Whether you're coordinating with clients, team members, or any group, you can easily start a group conversation by clicking "Create New" and adding multiple contacts or phone numbers.

To start a new group chat, simply click the "New Message" button from https://app.heymarket.com/chats/ and add the contacts you'd like to include in the group chat.
