What is an API?
An API is an interface that allows two different
platforms or applications to communicate using a
common language.
The Textvertising API.
Textvertising provide an easy to use API which can allow
your application to connect and send, Bulk SMS,
Bulk Premium Rate SMS
and Bulk MMS and receive SMS easily.
Send SMS and Premium Rate SMS.
Our API will
also accept lots of mobile numbers in one post
provided they are separated by a simple
delimiter - which makes sending much quicker
than traditional "one by one" services.
Full delivery reports are available and with
premium rate SMS, delivery reports (confirmation that the end
user has been charged) are HTTP POSTED back to
your application in real time. This makes
validating payment before sending content or
other information as foolproof as possible.
Send MMS.
Sending MMS with Textvertising is really easy
too. Create your own MMS ZIP files and host them
on your own platform or build them dynamically
from within your Textvertising account.
Simply HTTP post the parameters required and we
will fetch and validate the content of the file
before it is sent to ensure the best
compatibility with the handset.

Integration.
Our API allows you to have inbound SMS
requests (either from our Virtual Mobile number
or one of shortcodes) sent to your application
via HTTP POST.
Your server could process each request and
initiate an SMS or PSMS HTTP POST response.
We also provide dynamic delivery reports for
PSMS posts which you can request by supplying a
return URL in your HTTP POST.
We
can also offer a host of other pre-written
applications.
