2-way SMSOur 2 way SMS gateway can provide you with a reliable and cost-effective way for direct interaction with your users. The 2-way SMS service provides you with the ability to send and receive SMS messages from mobile phones. It is actually two different services combined seamlessly together, one service for sending SMS to mobile phones (Outbound service - Bulk SMS) and another one to receive SMS from the mobile phones (Inbound services - SIM Hosting, Long/Virtual Number or Premium Rate Short Code). This service is ideal for conducting 2-way marketing campaigns and SMS promotions and can be integrated also to company staff communications, to services that include time critical alerts, to enterprise applications etc. The 2way SMS service can be used also in a fully automated fashion by creating auto-responders which are predefined answers to certain user inquiries. When the user requests an auto-responder service by sending a special text (keyword) to the system, the system processes the incoming text and responds accordingly without any human intervention. Services such as weather, astrology forecast and stock market quotes are good examples of an auto-responder service.
