PIN based SMTP authentication

Sending text messages using PIN based authentication is a two step process, first you must set up your account by entering a unique PIN which will be used to authenticate future sending requests. Then, you send a specially formatted email and specify the PIN in the subject line. If the PIN matches, our service will authenticate the request, convert the text specified in the body of email and send it as SMS to the number specified in the To field.

1. Account Setup

  • In your online account (www.upsidewireless.com) go to Settings page to define your WebText code. The code should be 6 to 12 characters long and is case insensitive. Because Confirm Code acts like a password, it's highly recommended to change it frequently. Click on the link below to see an example.
