Hi Pratik,

To avoid any potential confusion, I should explain that the Now SMS/MMS Gateway is a software product. NowSMS is not a bulk SMS service provider, and it is not a replacement for an SMS service provider. You will need a subscription to a service provider, or a GSM modem, in order to send messages with NowSMS.

The Now SMS/MMS Gateway is a middleware tool for SMS, which among other features, can be used to manage connections to one or more service providers; or to manage receiving SMS messages; or to perform message formatting for advanced message types such as WAP push, MMS, etc.

But basically, SMS connectivity is a prerequisite for making use of the Now SMS/MMS Gateway product. Either a connection to an SMS service provider, or a GSM modem is required before you will be able to send any messages.
