    Wegus infotech SMS Gateway

    If you want to send bulk sms to your users through API, then you can send it using dedicated SMS gateway via HTTP Protocol. The HTTP API can be used to send various type of SMS messages including Long text messages or Short text messages. I am writing this blog which will help you to understand the use of sms gateway through HTTP API for template messaging. Using template messaging, messages can be sent on DND numbers.

    Note: HTTP url will do 300 request per second at a time.
