Hi, I wish to send bulk SMS using my Application. My Application is a web-based application using PHP as scripting language. What I have now on my machine is windows2000 O/S and a cable Internet connection. We do have Linux Server placed at a data center. What I understnd from your website is I need to install your gateway on my machine. Does that Internet connection I have enough for sending SMS via HTTP or it requires a special connection? What are the steps I need to follow to fullfill my requirement? What's the pricing of licenced version? | |||

Hi Ajay, I'm sorry, but NowSMS is not a bulk SMS provider. And it is not a replacement for an SMS provider. In order to send any SMS messages via NowSMS, an SMSC connection is required. This SMSC connection can be either a connection to an SMS service provider (NowSMS supports SMPP, UCP/EMI, CIMD2 and HTTP), or it can be a GSM modem (or GSM phone with in-built modem capabilities). A GSM modem is a specialised device that accepts a SIM card, and operates over a subscription to a mobile operator, just like a GSM phone. For NowSMS pricing information (not bulk SMS pricing), please e-mail nowsms@now.co.uk. -bn |
