Email and SMS reminders
Email and SMS reminders
Confirmations and reminders that go out on their own, in your local authority’s name.
Once the request is approved, residents receive a confirmation email listing the documents to bring, then a reminder SMS the day before. Each department sets up its messages, HelloSpot sends them.

The journey
From booking to appointment, every step has its message
- Email confirmation
As soon as the request is approved, a confirmation email sums up the appointment details, including the documents to bring on the day.
- SMS reminder the day before
To prevent forgotten appointments, a reminder SMS is sent the day before.
- Self-service cancellation
Residents can easily change or cancel their appointment: the freed-up slot goes to another resident, and the department can plan for absences.
Personalization
Messages in your local authority’s name
Automatic messages are personalized in your local authority’s name. The SMS includes the date, time, place and department; the email can list the documents to provide.
For passport appointments, an option makes SMS reminders unlimited. The same mechanism confirms room bookings: an email when booking, a reminder SMS the day before.
Beyond reminders
Targeted messages when you need them
Details about an appointment, an alert: advanced filters select exactly the residents concerned, and the message goes out in a few clicks. Messages can also be automated.
