In certain countries, CleanCloud allows you to obtain a custom phone number for two-way SMS messaging, letting customers reply to order updates and other notifications. This dedicated number enhances customer engagement and ensures smooth communication, especially useful for confirming repeat pickups via SMS.
Key Notes:
Dedicated Use: The number we provide is exclusively for CleanCloud and cannot be linked to existing numbers, devices, or external platforms.
Number Availability: We cannot select specific numbers and will allocate one based on current availability.
One-Way Messaging: Without a custom number, you can still send SMS (availability varies by country), but customers won’t be able to reply.

Accessing SMS Messages
Message Acces
View replies in the Inbox on the New Order page (messaging icon) and within each customer’s CRM profile under the Messages tab.
📌 Note: This feature is accessible only on the POS, not on mobile devices.
New Message Alerts
To ensure you don’t miss customer responses:
Go to Settings → Admin → Notifications → General Settings → Show New Message Notifications.
Set the station responsible for handling SMS messages (e.g., Station 1).
Specify how long notifications remain visible; we recommend “Until Dismissed” to ensure messages are acknowledged promptly.
