How to setup a SMS server? - GoFuckYourself.com

brtfly88 · 03-19-2008, 07:13 AM

Is there any way we can setup our own SMS server which can receive SMS from people and the server will redirectly the sms in text mail to our mail box?

Also how is the charge to people who send in sms to our sms server?

Anyone knows how it works ? Please help.

Thanks

sure thats called a gateway - all major phone companies have them and there are resellers that charge for premium ones

google for sms premium or gateway

If you're using it as an extra marketing hook (eg members being able to send SMSs to their favourite solo girl) then you should be able to use a phone, cable and suitable software.

If you want consumers to pay for the privilege then you'll need a premium SMS gateway. If you thought 15% for credit card billing was "large" wait until you see what your cut of an SMS transaction will be after all the fees are taken out.

exactly

basically youre renting a premium nr, if you want a shortkey like

sms SEX to 9999

its gonna cost per keyword as well, if you dont wanna split that 9999 line its gonna cost as well

fees are huge and setup costs are pretty high as well, so make sure you get some good info on pricing at your local telcos

Is there something like i setup a sms server + sms software to receive sms fr public but not thru telcos? and can we setup the gateway ourselve?

Any recommendation on this kind of service? If not please recommend cheap sms premium provider, possibly need to receive up to 3M sms/month.

Hi.. i am not sending the sms myself.

Make it simple, i know those sms providers. they are charging by 2 options:
1. to the company(reverse billing)
2. to the public(anyone who send sms)

what i need is:
1. i dont want thru this kind of middleman providers.
2. i want to know is there a way we can setup our own sms server + sms software to receive all the sms and mail to us.
3. for the operator number(gateway). i can rent or see how.

The most important is.. what is the setup cost for this service?

** Also can senders avoid sms charge on their mobile bill?

Here's my understanding of the process for implementing SMS (it fucking sucks and those making money aren't you).

- Build your own software, purchase software or hire people to build software to handle your SMS campaign. This software works with the SMS aggregator's gateway -- think of it like handling postbacks between your servers and a payment processor's. Not only does it talk to the SMS gateway, but it should handle the logic of your SMS campaign : "Text 'sexy' to 33333", where the sms gateway forwards that request to your software which must handle the flow.

- Integrate with an SMS aggregator under a shortcode that you must share "like virtual hosting" or get a dedicated one. Shortcode's aren't cheap like domains are.

- At least in the US, you need your SMS campaign to get approved by carriers, otherwise you'll get blocked.

- You have no control over sender's getting charged for their SMS to you - that's up to their carrier plan. However, in regard to SMS you send out, you can charge for it, which is a "Premium SMS", where you send an SMS to a user and charge them, say, $1.00 for it (say you're sending them a link to a picture). After carrier fees, aggregator fees, you're left with pennies on that dollar.

Anyway, I babbled this out and probably missed a few things / explained things wrong, whatever. It's not the most fun business to be in and again, from my experience the only one's making decent money aren't you (carrier, aggregator, software / sms "solution" people are).
