Smstools bulk SMS setup for Ultra SMS
An SMS gateway that signs in with a client ID and secret.
What Ultra SMS asks for
| Client ID and client secret | Smstools account: Developer, API & Webhooks, API credentials. The secret is shown once. |
|---|---|
| Sender | A name up to 11 characters or a number up to 14. |
Steps
- In your Smstools account open Developer, then API & Webhooks, then API credentials.
- Create a Client ID and secret. The secret is shown only once.
- In Ultra SMS open the Gateways tab, click Add gateway, choose Smstools, and paste both and set the sender. Click Test credentials (it sends nothing).
- Send a test message to your own phone before you start a campaign.
Good to know
Before you send through Smstools
Smstools 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.
