This article explains how to set up and manage SMS Keywords in Anedot, enabling donors to access your Action Pages by texting a custom keyword to a toll-free number.

CleanShot 2025-08-21 at 11.28.02@2x

SMS Actions is Anedot’s free text-to-give feature that makes mobile fundraising easy and accessible. Each fundraising account can set up two unique SMS Keywords, each linked to a different Donation Page. Supporters simply text your Keyword to a designated Anedot phone number and instantly receive a link to your Donation Page.

How to Create an SMS Keyword

  1. Go to Settings > Configuration > SMS Keywords

  2. Click the blue “Add Keyword” button in the upper right corner

  3. Select the Donation Page you'd like to link

  4. Enter a custom Keyword (e.g., "CityHelp" or "FoodNow")

  5. Click Save Keyword

Your Keyword must be unique. Common terms like “give” or “donate” are likely already taken and cannot be reused.

How to Edit or Delete a Keyword

  1. Find your Keyword on the list

  2. Click the three vertical dots on the far right

  3. Select Edit to change the page or keyword, or Delete to remove it entirely

Available SMS Phone Numbers

Your supporters can text your Keyword to either of these toll-free numbers:

  • (888) 444-8774

  • (800) 500-5858

Custom phone numbers are not supported.

SMS short codes are no longer available due to wireless carrier restrictions.
