Why use text messaging for raffles?

"Since working with Ytel, the ease and accessibility of reaching our fans has been incredible. Our fundraising has been heavily dependent on texting fans whether they are in our stadium or at their homes. During these challenging times, we have raised over $300,000 this season alone, mainly due to developing our database of over 10,000 fans thanks to Ytel.” - Miami Dolphins Foundation

How has Ytel been able to successfully send billions of texts?

 

Scale
Ytel uses a suite of cloud computing services that runs on the same infrastructure that Google uses internally for its end-user products. That means scale.

Reliability
The founders of Ytel have over 25 years of telecommunications experience. Communications cannot have downtime and redundancy is top priority, both across infrastructure as well as the carrier network. Ytel also encrypts all data in transit and at rest.
