Send a bulk iMessage campaign in 4 steps
1
Import your list
Upload a CSV or Google Sheet, or sync from HubSpot / GoHighLevel. Contacts are validated and deduplicated by phone number on import.
2
Check availability in bulk
Tuco checks iMessage availability for the whole list so eligible contacts get blue-bubble iMessage and the rest are queued for SMS.
3
Personalize and schedule
Build a campaign with merge variables, steps, and a send schedule. Personalized one-to-one messages perform better and are safer than a mass group send.
4
Send with rate limits and fallback
Tuco paces sends within rate limits and routes non-iMessage contacts to SMS via fallback, so the whole list is reached.
How many iMessages can I send per day?
Send volume depends on your plan and how many sending lines you have — daily message allowances scale with your plan (see pricing), and each line also performs up to 70 iMessage availability checks per day, distributed across lines automatically. Rather than blasting a new line at full volume, ramp gradually: new lines should warm up over time to protect deliverability and avoid getting flagged. See rate limits and anti-spam guidelines.Deliverability best practices for bulk sends
- Warm up new lines — increase volume gradually instead of sending at the cap on day one.
- Send personalized, one-to-one messages — not identical mass blasts or group threads.
- Verify availability first — don’t burn sends on numbers that aren’t on iMessage.
- Honor opt-outs immediately — process STOP replies and suppress those contacts.
- Spread across lines — distribute volume so no single line is overloaded.
Frequently asked questions
Can you send mass iMessage from a spreadsheet?
Can you send mass iMessage from a spreadsheet?
Yes. Upload a CSV or Google Sheet into Tuco, verify iMessage availability across the list, then send a personalized campaign. Each contact receives an individual message, not a group thread.
How many bulk iMessages can I send without getting flagged?
How many bulk iMessages can I send without getting flagged?
Stay within your plan’s daily allowance, warm up new lines gradually, keep messages personalized, and spread volume across lines. Aggressive identical blasting from a cold line is what triggers flags — pacing protects deliverability.
Does bulk iMessage require 10DLC registration?
Does bulk iMessage require 10DLC registration?
No. iMessage runs over Apple’s network, not the carrier A2P system that requires 10DLC. You still must follow consent and opt-out rules — see the compliance guide.
What happens to contacts who aren't on iMessage?
What happens to contacts who aren't on iMessage?
They’re detected during the availability check and sent over SMS via your configured fallback, so your whole list is reached regardless of device.
