# Pinpoint Channel

An Amazon Pinpoint Channel represents a communication pathway that you can enable to send messages to your users, such as email, SMS, push notifications, or voice. Each channel has its own configuration settings, including credentials, permissions, and delivery options. By managing channels, you control how your application engages with customers across different platforms.
