# New Feature: Location-Based Segmentation

 Published by [Subtext](https://info.joinsubtext.com/blog/author/subtext) on  Nov 12, 2021

We have an exciting product update!

Subtext campaigns can now collect subscriber location information, allowing hosts to send location-specific texts directly from their dashboards. You heard that right, the opportunity for geographically defined marketing and personalized communication via text has never been easier!

Whether you're a newsroom looking to send [hyper-local weather updates](https://info.joinsubtext.com/blog/usa-today-nola.com-use-sms-to-keep-locals-informed-during-hurricane-ida), an organization promoting a [local or regional event](https://info.joinsubtext.com/blog/ironman-creates-new-communication-and-marketing-channel-with-subtext), an [artist letting fans know](https://info.joinsubtext.com/blog/artists-are-using-subtext-to-create-genuine-connections-with-fans) about the next stop on your tour, or a host just trying to get to know your audience better, we've got you covered. 

**How do location-based segments work?**

Much like email and name collection, campaigns can be configured to make it *optional* or *required* to capture subscriber-volunteered zip code information on the signup form. 

![screencapture-acceptance-joinsubtext-locationexample-2021-11-09-17\_09\_07 copy](https://info.joinsubtext.com/hs-fs/hubfs/screencapture-acceptance-joinsubtext-locationexample-2021-11-09-17_09_07%20copy.png?upscale=true&width=300&name=screencapture-acceptance-joinsubtext-locationexample-2021-11-09-17_09_07%20copy.png)

The subscriber-volunteered location information will then become a segment of your audience allowing you to send geo-targeted texts by zip code, city, or state.
