SMS Gateway Australia

Discover how our online SMS Gateway can help you to rapidly target your audience with engaging text messages.

Reach your audience easily with the Esendex SMS Gateway

With an open rate of 98%, SMS is the most effective communications tool businesses and public services have at their disposal. Whether you’re sending flash promotions and marketing messages, a restaurant booking confirmation, automated alerts, or an appointment reminder, timing is everything. A powerful SMS gateway can help you to reach your audience in the most cost and time-efficient way possible. 

We’re all familiar with sending a text message to a friend. The Esendex SMS Gateway allows businesses to do something very similar – but send SMS at scale. 

Our SMS Gateway allows you to send messages to mobile networks by translating the message, so people receive it no matter what network they’re on. So rather than businesses having to connect with each mobile network or operator, an SMS Gateway allows you to connect once and then we take care of the rest – ensuring your messages reach the right person, with the right device, in the right country almost instantly or at a time you schedule.

Our SMS Gateway is accessed using our API functionality, which means you can integrate straight from your CRM or software, or you can use our web platform to import phone numbers and compose your messages via an easy-to-use interface.
