Because SMS messages cost money to send, we require that our customers purchase a 'SMS Plan' that meets their needs. The plans are all month-to-month and vary based on the country of origin. You should choose based on the country of origin of a majority of your Guests. Requirements for the SMS Module: - Only MyPMS customers can subscribe to the SMS service.
- When the SMS Module is activated, a country code will be required for all Guest's mobile numbers entered into a Booking (on the Booking Data tab). It is not required that a mobuile number be provided for all bookings. But if one is, it must have the country code selected.
- BookingCenter assumes that the country of your property is the 'default' country code for your mobile phone numbers, if one is not selected.
SMS Module Pricing
Billing is based on a per message structure. Each message is defined as a segment.
1 SMS Message = 1 Segment billed as one "segment" . Each segment/message is limited to160 to153 characters. For Example, If a Property writes a SMS that is 161 154 to 320 306 characters, then it will be counted as 2 Segments/messages, 321 307 to 480 460 characters = 3 segments/messages,etc., and will be billed accordingly. |
