46elks bulk SMS setup for Ultra SMS

Steps

1. Sign in at 46elks.com and copy your API username and API password.
2. Choose a text sender of up to 11 characters, or a number if you want replies.
3. In Ultra SMS open the Gateways tab, click Add gateway, choose 46elks, and paste both and set the From value. Click Test credentials (it sends nothing).
4. Send a test message to your own phone before you start a campaign.

Good to know

• This gateway has no delivery look-up in Ultra SMS, so its messages show as Sent, not Delivered. Check the gateway's own dashboard or reports for final delivery.

Before you send through 46elks

46elks charges per message segment at its own rates, which depend on the destination country. Check that your sender is allowed in each country you text. Business traffic to the USA normally needs A2P 10DLC registration or a verified toll-free number, and India needs DLT registration. Use Test credentials first, then send one real test to your own phone.

Dashboards change their menus from time to time; if a label differs, look for the API keys or developer section. Stuck? See the Ultra SMS troubleshooting table, the Ultra SMS user guide, or contact us.
