Open Rates Don't Fund Your Mission. Clicks Do.

Most SMS platforms still focus on:

  • Message delivery
  • Open rates
  • Volume sent

But opens don't drive donations.

Clicks are the moment a supporter takes action.

That's why Rally optimizes every campaign—and backs it with a guarantee.

When your text messages are trusted, branded, and action-oriented, supporters click.

Why Rally Delivers Higher Click Rates

Branded Sending Builds Instant Trust

Supporters are far more likely to click when they immediately recognize who a message is from.

Rally enables branded sending so every message clearly represents your organization, not a generic sender.

Custom Short Link Domains Increase Confidence

Unfamiliar links reduce clicks. Rally allows you to use your own branded short domains, which:

  • Feel safer
  • Improve deliverability
  • Increase click-through rates
  • Protect your brand reputation

Messages Designed for Action

Rally goes beyond plain text:

  • Video and image messages (MMS)
  • Branded, trackable links
  • Tap-to-donate and 1-click actions
  • Personalization and segmentation

Higher relevance leads to higher clicks.

Our 15% Engagement Guarantee

Opens don't feed families. Action does.

For qualifying campaigns:

  • We guarantee a minimum 15% click rate
  • If performance falls short, we credit your Rally account
  • Clear terms, transparent reporting, no fine-print games

Engagement means action — RSVPs, replies, sign-ups, donations.
Rally is built to drive the clicks that matter.
