Sending and receiving SMS messages over the Internet

Sending and receiving SMS messages over the Internet

Nowadays, many companies ask how they can send and receive text messages online. To send and receive a text message over the Internet, you need a virtual text number. But what are the options for sending and receiving a text message over the Internet? And what are the advantages? You'll find out in this article.

In what ways can you send and receive an SMS message over the Internet?

Sending:

  • Voice messages
    You can send voice messages over the Internet. You do have to write a text first. You then convert this written text into a voice message. The recipient will receive the message as a recorded call. Voice messages can be sent to mobile numbers, landline numbers and VOIP numbers.

     
  • EMAIL2SMS
    The EMAIL2SMS function allows you to send an SMS message from your email program to cell phones. An email message is converted to a text message and delivered to your chosen mobile number. It works without additional software from any email program.

Both send and receive:

  • Virtual SMS number
    You need a virtual SMS number both when receiving and sending an SMS message over the Internet. A virtual SMS number is very efficient for two-way communication. When you send a text message, the customer can easily respond to it. This ensures higher interaction and engagement with the customer.

     
  • SIM hosting
    SIM hosting allows you to send and receive text messages from our API or software via your SIM card. The SIM card is always available, 24/7. When you receive a text message, you can easily forward it by email to a group of recipients or just one recipient.

     
  • Shortcode keyword
    A second way to receive online SMS messages is through a shortcode keyword. This shortcode allows you to receive online text messages through a shortened number, for example, 8888, in place of your full phone number. The important point is that you can only receive this with Belgian cell phone numbers. Foreign cell phone numbers cannot send to your shortcode. The shortcode keyword is available 24/7, and you can choose whether to make the senders pay for sending their SMS message.
