About

A leading SMB-focused SMS marketing platform known for ease of use, transparent pricing, and compliance-first messaging tools

SlickText is a U.S.-based SMS and text message marketing platform founded in 2012, designed to help businesses of all sizes connect with customers through mobile messaging. The platform enables marketers to build opt-in subscriber lists, send mass text campaigns, set up automated drip sequences, and run loyalty reward programs — all from a web-based dashboard. SlickText serves as a direct marketing channel for brands looking to reach audiences with high open-rate mobile communications. The platform is particularly well-suited for SMBs and mid-market companies across retail, restaurants, nonprofits, fitness, and entertainment verticals. Core features include keyword-based opt-in tools, MMS messaging, two-way texting, segmentation, and integrations with popular marketing and e-commerce platforms such as Mailchimp, Shopify, HubSpot, and Zapier. SlickText competes in the growing SMS marketing space alongside platforms like EZTexting, SimpleTexting, Attentive, and Klaviyo. SlickText positions itself as an accessible, user-friendly alternative to more enterprise-focused SMS platforms, with transparent pricing and a strong focus on compliance with TCPA and carrier regulations. The company has grown organically and is bootstrapped, maintaining a lean operation while serving tens of thousands of customers across North America. Its loyalty and rewards module differentiates it from pure-play SMS tools by adding retention marketing capabilities.
