3. Speed Limit
Ultimate SMS
supports forking multiple processes
for sending multiple times faster in terms of sms throughput. However, it will consume multiple times more CPU and memory
as a trade-off.
Sending Speed allows you to set a limit on sms sending speed. For example, to limit sending speed to 500 sms every 5 minutes
, you can set Sending limit = 500, Time value = 5, and Time unit = minute
accordingly.

, you can set Cutting Value= 5, Cutting Unit = Percentage, and Cutting Login = Cutting Random Number
accordingly. Example If you want to send 100 sms
and set cutting value 5 percent
then 95 sms
will send, rest 5 sms
set delivered as status without sending. You can
also set specific amount
of cutting sms using Digit
instead Percentage
from Cutting Unit
dropdown. Set 0
for no cutting.
4. Sending Servers
Without assigning Sending Servers, you can't active your plan. You have to assign your sending servers that will be used for this plan. In other words, sms sent out by users who subscribe to this plan will be delivered by these servers.
5. Pricing
Without assigning Pricing or Coverage, you can't active your plan also. You can set the price of your custom unit. Since anyone wants to add more units to their purchase plan, you need to set the price for each unit. If you set the price at 0.3 USD
per unit, it will cost 60 USD
for 200 SMS units
. You can set different prices for different plans.
You also need to add your coverage or countries. Your customers can only send SMS to countries that you add to your plan. So if you add 10 countries to your plan then your customer sends SMS only to those 10 countries.
You can use only numeric
number not decimal
number on pricing setting. Example: Accepted: 1, 2, 3
Not Accepted: 0.025, 1.025, 1.00, 1.5
You can set different price for different sms types. e.g.
Receiving 1 plain or normal text and replying to 1 plain or normal text will deduct 2 SMS
messages from customer sms credit balance 1 credit for receive sms and 1 credit for send sms
. Also
Receiving 1 voice text and replying to 1 voice text will deduct 3 SMS
messages from customer sms credit balance 1 credit for receive sms and 2 credit for send sms.
You can also set MMS
and WhatsApp
sms price accordingly.
