Gupshup bulk SMS setup for Ultra SMS

Steps

1. Ask Gupshup for an Enterprise SMS account if you do not have one.
2. Link your DLT Entity ID, sender IDs and approved templates.
3. In Ultra SMS add a gateway, choose Gupshup, and paste the user ID, password and DLT details.
4. Send a test message with an approved template.

Good to know

• Sending to Indian numbers needs DLT registration: your Entity ID, an approved sender ID (header) and the Template ID of an approved content template. Ultra SMS has fields for all three. See the India DLT chapter of the manual.
• Gupshup has no read-only account check, so Test credentials cannot verify the login. Send a test SMS to your own number instead.
• Gupshup also sells WhatsApp Business messaging; for that, see Ultra WhatsApp.

Before you send through Gupshup

Sending to Indian numbers needs DLT registration whichever gateway you use: your entity, approved sender IDs and approved templates, added to Ultra SMS so each message carries them. Gupshup charges per message segment at its own rates, so check the segment counter and the cost estimate before you start. 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.
