Bulk SMS & SMS Marketing

Campaigns and notifications to large audiences, with send tracking.

What is it?

Bulk SMS lets you send the same message to a large number of recipients: promotional campaigns, announcements, mass notifications. Sends are made from the e-MC online account, through the HTTP API or through SMPP, and delivery reports let you track what was delivered.

Before a campaign, we scope the destinations, the volume and the sender (Sender ID) to display with you, because rules vary by country and operator.

Why a company needs it

  • Reach many people at once

    Announce an offer, a service change or a piece of information to a whole contact base, without handling recipients one by one.

  • A channel that needs neither Internet nor an app

    An SMS reaches any mobile phone, even without a data connection.

  • Know what was delivered

    Tracking sends with delivery reports lets you measure what reached recipients and clean up your contact base.

  • Be recognised at first glance

    With a Sender ID, your brand name replaces an anonymous number, within the limits of each country's rules.

Why use e-MC

  • Three ways to send

    Online account, HTTP API or SMPP: the same account serves campaigns, business SMS, the SMS API and OTP.

  • Scoping before launch

    We define the destinations, volume and sender to display with you before anything is sent.

  • Routes to African and international operators

    The route depends on the destination country and network; custom routing can be configured.

  • Large volumes without changing tools

    For high-volume sends, the SMPP connection takes over from the online account on the same platform.
