SMS

You can receive SMS on some types of numbers that we provide. It is however not yet possible to send SMS with our service.

All mobile numbers (except the ones listed below) that you purchase from Sonetel as well as city numbers in Canada and United States support SMS.

We deliver these SMS messages to you by email (SMS-to-Email). Emails are sent to the user that the Sonetel phone number is connected to.

We are planning to add the ability to send and receive SMS in our apps, but this function is not available yet.

It is free to receive SMS on your phone numbers, but there is a fair usage restriction.

Mobile numbers that do not support SMS

Mobile numbers from the following countries do not support SMS.

If you are not receiving SMS-to-email, this may be caused by either of the following factors.

We do not allow numbers to be used for identity validation if you haven’t purchased them. Please purchase the number and try again.

If you haven’t verified your account yet, you cannot receive SMS-to-email.
