Multimedia and MMS


You can use our servers to deliver multimedia content, polyphonic ringtones, wallpapers and Java Games.

Repurposing

We have facilities to repurpose your content on-the-fly so that you give us one file and we alter the contents to ensure that it can be displayed on the user's phone. If you prefer we can deliver your content without repurposing for the user's phone but in that case you must ensure that the images and sounds you send are suitable for the recipients particular phone.

MMS or WAP

You can choose to deliver your content using an MMS Service Indication or WAP PUSH.

Costs

And the costs are low: each MMS Service Indication or WAP PUSH cost the same as a single SMS message and each file collected by the phone is charged the same as a normal SMS message. So the total cost to you is the same as just two SMS messages - much cheaper than most Mobile Network Operators.

Unlike most Mobile Network Operators we can deliver MMS content all over the world. However you should be aware that there are some issues.

APIs

You can store your MMS files and WAP PUSH in our library (as public or private files) or use an API that lets you include them with your send MMS request.

A range of APIs are available or you can work directly from the website using the "Send SMS" navigation at the top of each page.

MMS re-purposing and delivery is always being enhanced and we welcome your suggestions for service improvement.
