I’m very excited to announce that MessageCloud is now live.

For myself and the team the decision is more than just a name change. It’s a change in our vision.

Back in the mid 2000’s when txtNation was setup we set out to build a revolutionary set of services, innovative at the time and often leading the market with numerous awards to credit. Since then we have laid the groundwork for the future of messaging and has allowed us to look at the full potential and value of all aspects of mobile messaging. This focus and broadening of vision has led to a name change, knowing it will go beyond just text messaging.

The name txtNation served us well, but it also limits us – the word “txt” is in the name, after all. After building a platform in MessageCloud that processes millions of transactions across our cloud technology in mobile billing and messaging, across multiple markets around the world it become clear that a change was needed.

So that’s how we got to MessageCloud

It’s a name that reflects our growing vision for what messaging can accomplish. We’re moving beyond a company that only serves text messaging and a wide range of markets for billing, to a focus on cloud based mobile messaging and payments. We can help business grow and deliver ROI. We can spark innovation and provide a platform that works and scales with a business.

MessageCloud isn’t our destination, rather a step on a journey. I’m excited for this. We’re moving in a new and exciting direction and I hope you can join us.

Best,

Michael Whelan

CEO, MessageCloud
