MESSAGING
Businesses like yours need to stay connected to clients, colleagues and
suppliers with words, pictures, video and more.
TEXT MESSAGING
Also known as MMS (multimedia
messaging service), a picture/video
message allows you to use your
phone’s photo or video capabilities to
send media to another wireless phone
user. You can even send an audio file
(such as a voice note).
Also known as SMS, a great tool for
communicating from phone to phone
with your team, text messages can be
sent anywhere in Canada or around the
world.* Adding a Text Messaging Plan
can lower your sent message costs to
as low as 1¢/message, plus all received
text messages will be free when you
have a text messaging plan.

America’s country code), the area code and

To text message while roaming in the US, enter
your recipient’s Canadian or US area code and
seven-digit wireless phone number.
When sending a text message from outside
Canada and the US, make sure to enter +,

From copying and auto-replying to blocking unwanted texts, Extreme
Text Messaging offers welcome change. Plus, these enhancements are
available to every Rogers customer with a text messaging–capable phone,
regardless of your plan. Features include:
Blocker – Whether it’s text from an unwanted source or a spam message,
block any contact so that they are unable to send you a text message.
Contacts can be reinstated if you change your mind.
Auto Reply – On vacation? Set up an auto-reply message that will
automatically be sent to anyone who texts you.
Forward – Similar to call forwarding, you can now forward text messages
to another wireless phone number. Perfect if you carry a business and a
personal phone and only want to carry one with you.
Respond to emails or send files to your clients from abroad – but first,
check the cost. Visit rogers.com/roaming to learn the estimated costs
for wireless services based on your device and your roaming destination.
Frequently travel to the US? Get a One Rate Data Plan for Canada
and the US, and enjoy worry-free data roaming! Visit rogers.com/
