SMS Text Applications
SMS text messages are the mobile phone's 'killer' app, with more than 300 million sent and received every single day in the United Kingdom alone.
An increasing proportion of these messages is between a service and an individual, and this is borne out by the growing number of TV programmes, newspaper articles and advertisements offering information or competition entry to subscribers texting 'something' to 'a number'. Businesses are also making more use of mobile phone texting to keep employees and contractors informed.

If you want a convenient five-digit shortcode, and want to make use of a premium service so you can earn from every person that sends you a message, we will take care of all aspects of getting it up and running.
Contacting Your Workforce
As phones become ever smarter, and the choice between them diversifies, it gets harder to keep everybody on the same version of the same phone, and harder still to provide an application that works on every variation throughout the workforce.
SMS text messaging is a common denominator between all mobile phones so, with your office or web systems doing the hard work, all your employees' phones need is the ability to receive text messages, and you can send and request information easily and reliably.
Urgent Notification
Many businesses rely on a quick turnaround between a customer requesting a service and the arrangements being made to deliver it. Employment agencies are a prime example, and the ability to automatically text all potential candidates for an urgent job, and to automatically handle the first response within minutes can give the edge over competitors still relying on phoning individually, leaving and taking messages.
