EnterpriseSMS API offers simple and efficient method for connecting corporate applications to the global SMS networks without having to deal with telecom contracts, routing and complex messaging protocols. Upside runs a highly reliable, redundant, telecommunications platform called SideWinderSMS which connects to all global SMS networks. The EnterpriseSMS API attaches to this proprietary platform and exposes minimal set of functions needed to deliver your messages to any mobile phone on the Planet. Similarly, mobile originated messages (such as replies) can be delivered to your application using the same method.

Your applications can take advantage of this common and well understood protocol to send and receive messages as per your business requirements.


How to Start

To use the API you must have an account with Upside Wireless service and the account must be configured to allow API access. To get going

  • Click here to create a new account
  • Click on the Contact Us link in your account to request API upgrade
  • Depending on your location and application other requirements may be needed - we will discuss them with you and advise

Once your account is setup you can proceed to add SMS capability to your application. We highly recommend that you first visit EnterpriseSMS API home and manually invoke the API. See an example here. This will help you quickly understand the requirements.
