Programmable SMS

How to integrate with our Channels API for SMS/MMS Messaging

Summary

SMS (Short Message Service) is a messaging channel that allows businesses to communicate with customers through text messages on their mobile devices. With SMS, businesses can quickly and easily reach a large number of customers and automate their communication processes.

In addition in the United States and Canada it is also possible to send media messages through MMS (Multimedia Message Service).
