What is an SMS API Platform?
An SMS API platform is a powerful software solution that enables businesses and developers to integrate SMS (text messaging) functionality directly into their applications, websites, or systems. By using APIs (Application Programming Interfaces), these platforms allow seamless, automated communication by sending and receiving text messages programmatically.
SMS API platforms serve as intermediaries between businesses and mobile carriers worldwide, simplifying the complex processes of routing messages and ensuring compliance with local and global regulations.
