Receive SMS / TXT Services

SMS4U can provide a variety of campaign and work flow options for you. When a SMS message is received to your Short Code or Long Code, the message is logged, posted onto the web site and optionally posted to your Web site or e-mailed to you.

Receiving can be to a dedicated Short Code (3,4 or 5 digit codes) or to a shared Short Code with a Keyword (a keyword to Short Code 875 / 8323) or to a dedicated Long Code (full length cell phone number).

When receiving to a Short Code, an automatic reply is generated back to the sender at no charge. The sender pays for the SMS to the short code. Most short codes are 20c. Note only NZ Cell phones can SMS to short codes. These are primarily used for marketing campaigns. E.g. scratch codes, SMS to go into an entry etc.

When receiving to a Long Code, there is no automatic reply sent to the sender, you will have to charge for responses (20c + GST/TAX)
