How do Text Blast Competitions Work?
Understanding how this feature works and its benefits
Purpose
The Text Blast Competition is designed to encourage participants to add new phone numbers and send text messages during an in-person fundraiser launch.
Participants compete for prizes based on:
- The number of text messages sent
- Who receives the first donation
The goal is to drive additional engagement beyond what participants would typically do without an incentive.
If you would like to run your campaign with a Text Blast Competition, please reach out to your Snap! Representative!
The Group Leader Experience
Once a text blast competition has been created, Group Leaders will see a Competitions tab on the Participants page of their dashboard.

Upcoming campaign-
Before the competition begins, Group Leaders can view:
- The competition start date and time
- The number of eligible participants (based on the team size or number of logged-in participants, whichever is greater)
- The waiting room, where they can see participants joining before the competition starts
Group Leaders can refresh the page to see the latest participant count and waiting room activity.

Live Campaign-
When the competition is live, Group Leaders can view the leaderboard in real time to track participant activity and progress.
This gives Group Leaders an opportunity to engage with the competition and encourage participation, including supporting text blast activity for remote fundraisers.
