Postman has 2 types of campaign channels available - Member of Public and Internal Staff
Member of Public: To send out messages to MOPs
Internal Staff - to send out with your own sender ID
You will need to provide your own Twilio credentials if you choose the Internal Staff
option
All messages sent out to MOPs via the Members of Public

You will only be able to see your agency's sender IDs if
Your agency's PIC has confirmed the sender ID with OGP
Your agency's PIC has approved that the sender ID can be reflected on Postman
Users with existing sender IDs with SGNIC

These users will be able to use their agencies' registered sender IDs with SGNIC, where the sender IDs will appear as options under the Select temporary sender name
field.
In the example below, the available sender IDs that the user's agency registered are Government Technology Agency

. The user will not be able to see other sender IDs registered by other agencies.
Users with no existing Sender IDs
Users without registered sender IDs with SGNIC can only use Postman production site from 18 June 2024, where WOG will be able to select the standardised Sender ID from the dropdown list.
