Would you rather receive a discount by email or text message?

[clairemarketinghub]

Some businesses send discount codes through email, while others prefer sending them straight to your phone through text. Which one would you rather receive? Do you prefer checking your email when you have time, or getting a text that lets you know about a deal right away? And at what point do these messages start to feel annoying rather than helpful?

I'd probably prefer getting discounts through email. Text messages can be convenient, but they can also make it easier to fall for scam links, especially when a message looks like it's from a familiar brand. With email, I feel like I have a little more time to check who sent it and whether the offer is legit before clicking anything. I'd rather be careful than rush into a deal that turns out to be a scam.

Email for me, definitely. It's so easy for scammers to fake promo messages and discount offers through text, and sometimes they look convincing enough to make you second-guess whether they're legit or not. I'd rather check my email and make sure the offer actually came from the brand before clicking any links. These days, you really have to be careful because you never know which messages are genuine and which ones are just trying to scam you.

Honestly, both can get annoying, especially when businesses keep sending promotions even when I'm not interested. But if I had to choose, I'd go with email. At least I can check it whenever I want without getting interrupted by a text notification. I don't mind receiving discounts, but when the messages become too frequent, they start feeling more like spam than actual offers.

Same here! I feel like businesses should be more mindful of how they send promotions. A good offer can actually get my attention, but if a brand keeps popping up everywhere, it can make me less interested in buying from them. There's a difference between reminding customers about a good deal and making them feel like they're constantly being sold something.
