How do I send a text with a link that doesn't load a preview of the link in the text?

So you want to send a link without a preview? Let us teach you how!

If you choose to add a link to the end of your message, we encourage you to add a character after the tag to prevent the link from showing up as a preview. The character can be as simple as a punctuation mark, or additional wording. 


Why do I not want the link to show up as a preview? To put it simply, it’s not as pretty! When creating campaigns for subscribers, we aim to please the eye by making it aesthetically pleasing. The preview box tends to be an eye sore and a waste of space. If you add a character after the link, the message will feature a pretty hyperlink instead!
