4 hours ago Kilmarnock FC launch official WhatsApp channel for supporters
We have launched an official WhatsApp channel, sending news and key information directly to supporters’ phones.
The one-way broadcast platform allows supporters to receive text, photos, videos and polls, as notifications on their phones, so you can stay up to date with all the ongoings at BBSP Rugby Park.
Extending the availability of club news away from social media channels that all supporters may not be members of, this new method of communication will give those that opt in the ability to keep up-to-date with our most important updates without having to rely on their newsfeeds.
With messaging focusing on key information, matchday updates, ticketing and more, the new service will help supporters stay in the loop with all things Kilmarnock FC.
This is a one-way channel, meaning messages cannot be responded to, but you can react to our posts with emojis and interact with voting polls.
Please note that personal information of followers and admins is private, as well as who you choose to follow – meaning you’ll remain totally anonymous should you choose to join.
Lochlin Highet, Media & Communications Manager, said: “We’re excited to offer an official WhatsApp service for our supporters.
“We want to bring ours fans the latest news about their club – and this gives us an avenue to do so without relying on social media algorithms.
“WhatsApp is a very popular service which is used every day by many of our fans of all ages. We’ll be delivering the latest news about Killie – and we’re confident the channel will be a great success.”
To join, simply click the link below, press the follow button in the top-right corner, before tapping the bell icon (also in the top-right corner) to ensure notifications are turned on.
The Kilmarnock FC channel will then show up in the ‘Updates’ tab which can be found at the bottom left of your WhatsApp app.
