SMS

Top  Previous  Next

Before you can send anything via SMS you will need to open an account with an SMS gateway.  In this release of PhonePad 5 only two SMS gateways are provided, however we plan to add a few more over the next couple of months.

 

 SMSSettings

 

Select the SMS Provider you have an account with from the drop-down list, then enter your account details in the fields provided.  The fields you need to fill in will vary with each provider.

 

The Gateway URL should remain as is, unless we instruct you to change it.

 

Messages can only be sent if the Active check box is checked.

 

You can make sure everything is set up correctly by clicking the Test button.  Enter a cell/mobile number (including the country code) and click Send.  You can change the default message text if you wish.

 

 SMSTest

 

You should get a message from the SMS Gateway provider if all went well, or if there were problems.  The message you get back will vary from provider to provider.
