# How to Direct Message

We believe that friendly communication is the best way to establish connections in the NFT community. Uptick provides 1-to-1 messaging function, which builds a bridge of communication for pre-sales consultation, after-sales service, and community building.

All messages can be viewed on the 'Messages' page.&#x20;

In addition to your 1-to-1 chat with other users, you can also view:

* **Notification:** Unified notification issued by the official, usually version update, event launch, etc.
* **System Alert:** Reminders automatically sent by the system, so that you can know the operation status more conveniently, such as purchase & sales status, new drops reminder you followed.​
