Tip:
Basic, or non-subscription based keywords are meant for individual
transactional interactions. With non-subscription based keywords, a recipient texts in to a keyword and a
response is sent back. The interaction ends there. The recipient is not added to a list because they have not agreed to receive future marketing messages from you.
Note: When a person texts in to a keyword, the keyword must be the
first thing contained in the SMS message they are sending to you. Additional content
is allowed, but the keyword must be first.
