Send and Receive SMS Messages from the FileMaker Platform

fmSMS allows you to send and receive SMS messages using the FileMaker Platform.

fmSMS allows you to send an SMS from the FileMaker Platform to almost any mobile phone in the world via one of the supported SMS Gateways, reaching over 1,000 mobile networks in more than 220 countries. SMS is great means of direct communication with customers, staff, suppliers, and students.

SMS is perfect for appointment reminders, phone messages, promotions, segmented marketing, school absence alerts, and password confirmations. With SMS you can reduce your costs and play less "telephone tag".

• Send single and bulk SMS messages (messages are typically delivered in seconds)
• 2 Way SMS - allow recipients to reply to messages and have them appear in fmSMS
• Send long messages (greater than 160 characters)
• Works with over 50 SMS Gateway providers internationally
• Delayed Delivery - send a message now for delivery at a future time
• Alphanumeric Sender ID
• Delivery Receipts - track the status of sent messages
• Message Logging - track the history of all sent messages
• Message templates - create an unlimited number of pro forma templates
• Send Messages to WhatsApp Users using the Twilio API for WhatsApp

fmSMS is 100% unlocked for you to integrate into your own FileMaker solution.

(Not all SMS Gateways support all features of fmSMS)
