Why Swift Digital?
Large government departments, educational institutions, banking and financial organisations, and legal and accounting companies have chosen the Swift Digital platform since 2001.
Besides being one of the most established, reputable, and effective marketing automation platforms in Australia, there is another reason why they choose us…
Marketing demands have grown more sophisticated in recent years but so have data privacy and security requirements.
Swift Digital has always maintained our servers here in Australia.
This provides organisations with the peace of mind that their data always remains under local jurisdiction. We also maintain full compliance with all Australian anti-spam and privacy laws.
If you’re looking for a more reliable way to conduct SMS and mobile marketing, email marketing, event management, landing page design or online surveys for your government department, we provide it.
Your data couldn’t be safer!
In addition to our long-standing reputation for quality, organisations choose us because all our data servers are located in Australia.
This means that your data remains under Australian jurisdiction; and we are fully compliant with anti-spam and privacy laws.
”We kicked off our use of Swift Internally this week, and have had a lot of positive feedback already.

Who's it for?
SMS is best used as part of a complete automated messaging and marketing solution. For instance, it is very effective for sending:
- Timely reminders about events
- Updates during emergencies, such as extreme weather events
- Automated replies to inbound messages
- Enrolment or registration details to constituents
- Alerts to staff or contractors
SMS marketing remains widely used by organisations because of its reach. Nearly everyone has access to SMS.
As a short messaging medium, reaching those without internet access, without expensive smartphone data plans, the hearing impaired, and those without fixed addresses can be of great benefit to government departments.
Because we use a tier-one mobile gateway, our SMS platform is reliable enough that your messages are seen, opened, read, and responded to (if necessary) by the right people.
It’s simple to use and government departments can easily set up campaigns for multiple purposes…
