Bulk SMS: message thousands of your delivered customers at once

You already get event-based SMS from Blanxer: an order is placed and the customer gets an SMS automatically. When you want to reach many customers at once, for offers, win-backs or updates, use the Bulk SMS tool at ai.blanxer.tech.

This guide walks you through everything: credits, setup, connecting your Blanxer store, filtering customers, writing your message and sending it.

Event SMS and bulk SMS: what each one does

  • Event SMS (built in)

    Lives inside app.blanxer.com → BlanxerSMS. Sends automatically after specific events such as order placed or delivered.
  • Bulk SMS (separate app)

    Lives at ai.blanxer.tech. Targets segments such as delivered customers or abandoned orders and sends a campaign in one go.

Which one to use

Use Event SMS for transactional messages. Use Bulk SMS for marketing, announcements, reactivation and festival offers.

How to send bulk SMS to your customers

  1. Step 1

    Load SMS credit once, use it anywhere

    Go to app.blanxer.com → BlanxerSMS and load SMS credit. The same credit is checked and used when you send through the Bulk SMS tool.

    You must have enough credit for your campaign. The tool checks automatically before sending and shows whether your balance is sufficient.

  2. Step 2

    Create your account on ai.blanxer.tech

    Bulk SMS runs on a separate instance, with more tools coming soon.

    Note: this login is different from your Blanxer (app.blanxer.com) login.

  3. Step 3

    Connect your Blanxer store (one time)

    This lets the tool securely pull your store's segments (delivered customers, inactive or abandoned orders).

    • In your browser, open app.blanxer.com and log in to your store
    • Go to Store Setting → API Key
    • Create an API key
    • Go to ai.blanxer.tech and add your API key there

    Note: your order statuses in Blanxer must be accurate. Only orders marked Delivered appear as Delivered Customers in the Bulk SMS tool.

  4. Step 4

    Open the Bulk SMS plugin

    In ai.blanxer.tech, open the BulkSMS plugin and click Use Plugin. You'll see two segments:

    • Delivered Customers: every customer with an order marked Delivered
    • Inactive Orders (Abandoned): customers who started an order but didn't complete it

    Narrow your audience further with Min LTV, Max LTV, City or the other available filters.

  5. Step 5

    Compose your message

    • Click Compose SMS
    • Write your message, and keep it clear and actionable
    • Always add your store name at the end, for branding and trust
    • Click Next to review

    Example: "Get 20% off on all items this weekend. Visit our store now. - Blanxer Supply"

    The credit check happens automatically. If your balance is too low, you'll see a notice to top up in app.blanxer.com → BlanxerSMS. If it is enough, you can go ahead and send.

  6. Step 6

    Send and track

    Click Send to deliver the campaign to every filtered customer. You'll see success and failure feedback; keep an eye on delivery status and any replies.

SMS works well alongside ads: combine it with Facebook ads to your own website for a multi-channel approach that brings back past buyers as well as new ones.

Bulk SMS best practices for Nepali stores

Segment carefully

  • Delivered Customers: ideal for review requests, cross-sells and loyalty offers
  • Inactive or abandoned orders: ideal for cart reminders, limited-time discounts or FAQ links

Be concise

SMS is short. Put the value up front: the offer, the date and what to do next.

Identify yourself

Always end with your store name. It is required.

Respect timing

Avoid late-night sends and stick to business hours.

Mind the credits

Message typeOne creditEach part of a longer message
Standard English SMS160 characters153 characters
Unicode SMS (Nepali text or emoji)70 characters67 characters

A single emoji or Nepali character makes the whole SMS Unicode, so you get fewer characters per credit. Write offers in English or Romanised Nepali if you want the longer limit.

Compliance and consent

Send only to customers you have a genuine relationship with, and honour opt-out requests. For the wider rules online sellers in Nepal follow, see our E-Commerce Act compliance guide.

Frequently asked questions

Why are no customers showing in the Bulk SMS tool?

First confirm the order statuses in Blanxer: only orders marked Delivered count as Delivered Customers, not orders still Processing or Dispatched. Then re-check the access token and store ID in ai.blanxer.tech → Settings. If it still shows nothing, log out and back in on both apps and refresh.

Why is my SMS credit not detected?

Confirm that you loaded the credit in app.blanxer.com → BlanxerSMS, because the Bulk SMS tool uses that same balance. Then wait a few seconds and try again; the tool re-checks your credit in real time.

How many characters does one SMS credit cover?

A standard English SMS of up to 160 characters uses 1 credit, and longer messages use 153 characters per part. A Unicode SMS (Nepali text or emoji) of up to 70 characters uses 1 credit, and longer messages use 67 characters per part. A single Nepali character or emoji makes the whole message Unicode.
