How are text messages sent?
|
| |
|
Text messages are sent via SMPP through our unique shortcode ñ67553î.
| |
|
The short code is a 5 digit number that appears on the users phone when any text message is received. Users can also reply to your text message blasts by replying directly to the short code via text.
| |
|
SMPP (shor-code).
| |
|
| |
|
SMPP or short code delivery is designed specifically for bulk SMS text message blasting.
| |
|
It is also difficult to support a large variety of wireless providers when using SMTP delivery because many wireless carriers change their SMS SMTP gateways or simply do not have one.
| |
|
Where as a short code (SMPP) is a direct link to the wireless carrier, you are guaranteed direct delivery to the users cell phone.
| |
|
Our short code supports over 800 different wireless carriers. A detailed list of supported carriers can be found at
| |
|
Virtually every phone is supported.
| |
|
| |
How much does it cost? How does your pricing structure work?
|
| |
|
Our pricing structure is based on how many messages you want to send.
| |
|
Each text message is considered 1 credit.
| |
|
So if you want to sent a text message blast to 500 cell phones, that is 500 credits.
| |
|
Our rates are competitive and optimized for the little guy as well as larger companies.
| |
