Question   How much does Twilio charge per a text message?

A.
1) Setup an external billing product for selling the credits.

2) Add a billing option to the product.




3) Edit the Notify URL for the product putting your URL as shown below:
~wmtsystemurl~/admin/smsapi.php?memberid=~affid~&credits=#&apikey=XXXX###

# = Replace # with the amount of credits to add when payment is made
XXXX = Put your API Key from Advanced Features.
yourURL.com = Put your domain name.

4) You can then get the URL or ~~ code to use when when editing billing for placing the button throughout your site.

A. If by calls to action you mean that a member or contact takes an action and then an SMS message is sent to them then yes.  You can either hire us to set it up for you as a support request or if you have someone familiar with php you can do this with a few lines of code.

<?php
include("tools/Telecom.php");

$message = "Example SMS Message";
$cellNumber = "555-555-5555";
$memberAID =  1;

$myMember = new Member();
$myMember->loadMember($memberAID);

Telecom::addSMS($message, $cellNumber, $myMember, time());
?>

The standard member ~~ variables are converted when the actual message is sent.

A. When logged in as the admin go to "SMS Credit Assign".  Here you will see a list of all of your Members and the ability to modify the amount of credits they have.  You can give Members credits here.  Every time an Member sends a message using the SMS broadcaster a credit is deducted from their account.  If the Member has no credits, then none of their messages are sent.  This allows you to control how many text/voice messages Members can do and prevent them from racking up a large fee from Twilio.  If desired, you can setup your own billing outside of the Web Marketing Tool Software and bill your Members for additional credits, but you will need to manually add any credits they purchased.

A. Yes, SMS notification messages work in our software.  They allow members to receive SMS notifications to your mobile phone (in USA) when members receive new contacts or have appointments on their calendar.  We also have a paid SMS Marketing Tool for sending marketing messages to contacts.

Setup SMS Notifications

Go to ~wmtsystemurl~/admin/notifications###
Add your phone number and mobile carrier then turn on notifications

IMPORTANT. 

We don't guarantee the delivery of SMS notifications as it depends on the carrier.

A. Members can receive messages in the US only.


We also have a SMS/Voice Marketing plugin which provides support for more countries,
but you need a Twilio, Ytel or Plivo account (We recommend Twilio) and they charge per a text message (or voice broadcast).
