Rifts Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Hey eveyone, I have this great idea I would love to do but I have some questions and whenever I have questions I come here and they always get answered :-) Anyway what do you guys know about SMS short codes (you know those commercials on TV that are like text ringtone1 to 555)? I did some quick reading and it seems they are super expensive?!? Is there anyway to get them free or cheaper if you can write your own code? Has anyone had any experience with sms short codes? Also is there anyway for a site to receive a SMS and then charge that persons service provider with php? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pengu Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I think you need a PABX system for all this to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikachu2000 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 The short codes are owned by the carriers. Writing code won't get you one, about $1000USD per month will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
