Utilities & Subscriptions

SMS billing reminders and service advisories for utilities and subscription services

Bills get paid on time when the reminder has the right amount, and outages hurt less when customers hear first.

Water districts, electric cooperatives, internet and cable providers send the same two messages every month: here is your bill, and here is what's happening to your service. SMS Philippines turns your billing export into personalized reminders, adds an automated voice call for accounts about to be disconnected, and lets you warn whole barangays about scheduled interruptions in minutes.

Bill-due reminders from your billing export

Export the month's bills with columns like Account Number, Amount and Due Date. Write one message with placeholders and upload the file, up to 20,000 rows at a time. Every subscriber gets their own figures, and you get a results file showing what was sent to whom.

Escalate with a voice call before disconnection

For accounts past due, run an Automated Voice campaign that calls each subscriber and reads the amount, due date and payment options aloud. Outcomes like answered, no answer and busy are logged per account, so your field team only visits the ones who never picked up.

Service interruption advisories by area

Keep subscribers in contact groups by barangay, feeder or node. When maintenance is scheduled or a line goes down, broadcast to just the affected group with the expected restoration time, and see the recipient count before you send.

Monthly schedules that run themselves

Create a recurring campaign for each billing cycle: a reminder five days before due, one on the due date and a follow-up after. It repeats every month without anyone setting alarms, in Manila time, with a plain-English summary of the schedule.

Sample texts you can copy

Plain text, no emojis, amounts written as PHP. Exactly how they'll arrive.
