Ayofresh4u:
There are couple of places to get your premium bulk sms API. These companies have direct connection and link with all the gsm operators in Nigeria and other countries. They sell in Euros and you have to pay online from their websites or through paypal. There are charges you incur each time you make a payment. Like paypal charges 4.9% of each payment. Other gateways they use on their websites charge about 2.85%.

For you to be able to make these payments, you must either have a paypal account or a bank token for internet banking. The reason for a bank token is because there are some payment gateways that demand mastercard secure code if you are using mastercard. And for you to get a mastercard secure code, you will need to make a request of certain PIN from your internet banking platform using your token to authenticate it. After that, you will be taken to the mastercard secure code website where you will register and get your secure code.

These are international bulk sms gateways you can use.

1. INFOBIP - www.infobip.com
This is a company from Netherlands. They have office in Ikeja Lagos. They are very reliable, but there pricing model for a starter is actually very high. Except you want to be selling at #2 or #2.50Kobo per sms, which is ok. There are people selling at that price and their clients are still buying from them. In bulk sms, delivery is the king, not the price. A client will be ready to pay you #3 per sms as long as the sms get delivered within seconds. If you want to use them, you can go to their website and send them a message. They will reply you and an account manager will be assigned to you and from there, things will fall into place.

PRICE MODEL:
AIRTEL - 0.0062 Euro (#1.40kobo)
ETISALAT - 0.0062 Euro (#1.40kobo)
GLO - 0.0075 Euro (#1.70kobo)
MTN - 0.0071 Euro (#1.60kobo)

2. ROUTESMS - www.routesms.com
This is an Indian company. They are very good at what they do. They have economical and premium routes. Their economical route is very cheap, but it has delivery issues. Their premium route delivers sms in 1 second. And their premium route is even cheap. There is no initial purchase. You can start with 50 Euros.

PRICE MODEL:
AIRTEL - 0.0045 Euro (#1.08kobo)
ETISALAT - 0.0045 Euro (#1.08kobo)
GLO - 0.0060 Euro (#1.34kobo)
MTN - 0.0052 Euro (#1.16kobo)

3. ARUHAT - www.aruhat.com
This is an Indian company also. They are also very reliable. But their initial purchase must be 500 Euros and their sms units have validity period.

4. CNS NETWORK - www.cs-networks.net
This is also an Indian company. They are also very good. But I remember chatting with one of their customers' support, and she told me (whether by mistake or what) that routesms is very good. We were discussing something and I mentioned routesms, and she told me that they are very good.

PRICE MODEL:
AIRTEL - 0.0050 Euro (#1.12kobo)
MTN - 0.0055 Euro (#1.23kobo)
ETISALAT - 0.0055 Euro (#1.23kobo)
GLO - 0.0050 Euro (#1.12kobo)

The pricing model of Routesms and Aruhat are almost the same. Just contact all of them and request for their pricing model. Make sure you ask them about validity period of the sms units. For instance, Aruhat will initially tell you that the sms units expire after 6 months, but if you insist, they will tell you that they will make yours not to expire. You will have to negotiate everything, including prices. Talking about prices, you cannot get a level head pricing for all the networks. Some networks will be cheaper, some will be higher. How do you get a level ground for your pricing? Just add the four prices together and divide into four and you will get a level price for each of them. Then you can now come up with your own price for your clients.

Check the sms price in Euro with the current Euro-Naira exchange rate. I did the calculation above with 1 Euro to 224 Naira.

When you have chosen the company you want after comparing and asking questions from their support team, they will create your account for you with a test sms units. You will get their HTTP API urls and integrate on your bulk sms application.

The way they credit you is not the normal way we credit people. For instance, if you pay 50 Euros, you will be credited with 50 Euros. But this 50 Euros in actual sense can send up to 9,000 sms. So as you send, they will be deducting it from your 50 Euros. For instance, let's say you have 50 Euros now and you send one sms, your balance will look like this: 49.2228 and so on.

Stay tuned..

so every coy sells above #1, where den does those who sell at #1 on their site buy from?

again, these prices r they really per unit of 160words?

standfit5:
go to any etisalat centre with any ID card(nat'l,voters,driver's,even office's) and switch the old SIM seemlessly in less than 10mins and everyone will still be able to reach u on that line. u will have no worry anymore. call rates are the best 11k/sec to all nigera networks(N5 daily fee). a friend did that two days ago as he cldnt withstand the queue and he is so glad today

is this the only process to port, isn't there a code or something one can use? I need to port asap, had a enof!

People like dis deserve to be paid in their own coins. Find ways to disgrace n embarrass her publicly. Put her name on d lips of gossipers around, in her place of work/biz, her neigbours, in her church, everywhere possible. D shame dat she can't be a complete woman on d lips of many will kill her b4 u cld lift a finger.

even if she doesn't ve d moni promised, she could ve been nicer.

Hello NL, I have just put up my first ever website, its actually a bulksms website: patsms.com. I have not been able to start using this site due to payment gateway issue. Before now, I had tot it was all abt connecting to my bank and payments will go straight to my account only to discover that I have to register and integrate through a payment processor. The problem now is which one as d two that I have come across is not ok by me. Intersweitch is expensive while voguepay charges on customers account which most customers may not like.

pls kindly suggest for as a matter of urgency any better option out there. Thanks in anticipation

Too bad, I hope something is done so u recover ur money. So sorry sis!

databoy247:
Free services are always limited. For example there may be a limit on the number of subscribers you might have (like saying you cannot have more than 500 subscribers in your list), then some features will not be there like follow up email automation. That is, you will not be able to prepare follow up emails and program them to deliver on scheduled dates and time. Then some free services will put adverts in your emails.

The limitations are much. But it is advisable to make use of free a free service, then when you have grown you can then migrate to a paid service. The best free service provider i can recommend is mailchimp. With mailchimp, you can send 12,000 emails to 2,000 subscribers for free. And billing starts from $10 monthly (about N2,300).

With this, you can be sure your business has started earning so you will be comfortable paying the monthly subscription.

thanks
