SMS Settings

Transactional SMS via Twilio Messaging Service

SMS Notifications

Enable one-way transactional SMS to clients. SMS is sent in addition to email notifications and never replaces them.

Test Mode

When a test client is selected, only that client will receive SMS. Clear this field to enable SMS for all clients with consent.

24-hour Appointment Reminders

Reminders run automatically every 15 minutes for confirmed appointments starting in ~24 hours. Use the button below to run the check manually (respects test mode, consent, and idempotency — safe to run repeatedly).

SMS Types

Toggle individual transactional SMS types on or off.

Booking Confirmed

Sent when an appointment is confirmed (in-store or online payment).

Appointment Rescheduled

Sent when an appointment date or time is changed.

Appointment Cancelled

Sent when an appointment is cancelled.

Payment Request

Sent with the payment-request email for staff-created bookings.

Payment Received

Sent when an online payment is confirmed by Stripe.

24-hour Appointment Reminder

Sent ~24 hours before a confirmed appointment.

SMS Templates

Edit or remove the templates linked to RWC's supported automatic SMS events. New automatic message types require a new app event/trigger, not just another template.

No SMS event templates are currently available.

Some SMS events have no active template.

Those events will be skipped until you create or activate a template for them.

Send Test SMS

Test any saved template with sample data before relying on it for live client notifications.

Create an SMS template before sending a test.

Privacy & Content

SMS messages are one-way (Alphanumeric Sender ID — clients cannot reply). Messages contain appointment logistics only — no diagnoses, clinical notes, medical history, treatment plans, or other sensitive clinical information. All times are in Europe/London. Client SMS consent is managed on each Client Profile.
