Getting connected.

Once you’ve been provided your account credentials, you need to generate a GET or POST request.
This you can do in your preferred programming language.

Please note that if you are using the economy service this has a fixed sender ID (the originator will be ignored). Only the direct and international routes support a dynamic sender ID.

Use the information below for single or multiple messages, when using an API-key. Simply change the fields highlighted in red to your relevant information.

Or, for those that wish to use the standard username and password, please click the button below to view the example code and different programming languages, specifically when using the legacy format.

Whatever your language, we’ll get you texting.

Once armed with your API-key, copy, and paste the example codes below to start using our API in your preferred format. If you prefer to use the legacy API, with a username and password, code examples in popular languages can be found by clicking the ‘api legacy view‘ button above.

    The SMPP high-volume solution.

    Instead of connecting via our SMS API, customers have an alternative method to connect to Faretext, via our SMS SMPP service.
    Standing for Short Message Peer-to-Peer, this type of integration is used for broadcasting high-volumes of messages very
    quickly and directly to both, text aggregators and mobile network operators.

    Our server supports the industry-standard SMPP 3.4 and can process up to 600 messages per second.
    Simultaneously the system can also receive delivery receipts, ensuring real-time delivery results of your bulk
    text campaigns.
