COUNTRIES SUPPORTED FOR MMS REVIEW REQUESTS

SUPPORTED TIMEZONES 

Customers can choose their timezone from within the Birdeye dashboard.

Our current timezone is converted to its corresponding daylight timezone automatically when applicable.

You can choose the Timezone from the ‘Settings’ tab in the top right corner of the Birdeye dashboard. Click on ‘Timezone’ in the ‘Account’ section.

Further, select the timezone for your account. 

BIRDEYE TEXT DELIVERY TIME

To prevent inconvenience to the customers, Birdeye allows you to send texts between 8 am and 8 pm in your time zone. NOTE: In case a request is sent outside of these hours, texts will be sent on the next day between 8 am and 8 pm in your time zone.

For example, if your business is based in London, UK, your customers will receive a text between 8 am and 8 pm London time (GMT or BST). On the other hand, if your business is located in Atlanta, Georgia, your customers will receive a text between 8 am and 8 pm Atlanta time (EST).

ENSURING THAT CUSTOMERS RECEIVE A REVIEW REQUEST TEXT

 Consider the few things listed below while sending a text:

1. Make sure that the address (including your Zipcode and Country) provided in 'Settings'', under the location, within the 'Profile' tab is correct.

2. When you check in with your customers to send them review requests, make sure the phone number follows the format of your country. 

Every attempt is made to assign you a phone number (to send out a text from the system) from your area code. Sometimes this is not possible, and we allot a phone number from a nearby area code.
