Sir/Madam,
Good day. I tried your 60days trial version sometime last month but unfortunately it didn't work out. I guess I didn't get the settings very well.
I am a Nigerian and my bussiness is based in Nigeria too. I tried sending text messages to the tree GSM lines available in Nigeria to text/try your service but it didn't work.
I don't know whether your service is incompactible with Nigerian systems or I didn't get the setting well.
Please I need a help on this.
The GSM networks available in Nigeria are :
M'TEL, MTN, ECONET, and GLOBACOM
I look forward to your favourable response.
Thanks.
Best Regard,
Kool

Hi Kool,

I believe you may be misinterpreting what our solution is.

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 an SMS 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.

So basically, in short, you need a subscription to an SMS service provider, or a GSM modem, in order to send messages with NowSMS.
