Company Description

MessageBird powers communication between businesses and their customers — across any channel, always with the right context, and on every corner of the planet. If you’ve ever ordered takeaway, returned a package, contacted customer service or requested a login code, it’s almost guaranteed your interactions have been powered by MessageBird’s technology. Our products, tools and omnichannel solutions are building blocks that help businesses streamline conversations through their customers’ preferred channels — like SMS, Voice, WhatsApp, WeChat, Messenger, Email and more. This versatility gives end consumers instant, safe and secure access to information they need. It also means they can spend less time on hold, avoid repeating stories to multiple agents, and get more time to do what they love.
