Overview

Accelerate the development of custom SMS, EMS, WAP Push and MMS messaging applications with the SMSC Connectivity SDK. It prevents you from the time-consuming implementation of sophisticated low-level communication protocols (UCP, SMPP, Sema OIS, CIMD2). Your application will be mobile messaging enabled within a few days.

The SMSC Connectivity SDK is used by customers in more than 20 countries around the globe and with 30 different mobile operators. Released for the first time in 2001 the SDK combines over 2 years of real-life experiences.

Licensing and pricing information By version 2.1 you can license single SMSC protocols or can combine two or more. For your convenience we also offer an all-protocol bundle.
Standard SDK: One license of the SMSC Connectivity SDK includes a software developer license for a single PC (for developing and debugging your application) and one so-called deployment license. The deployment license is used for running your final application (including the SMSC Connectivity SDK) on a productive server. Thus, the Standard SDK of the SMSC Connectivity SDK can only be once distributed together with your application. 
Professional SDK:  If you are interested in royalty-free distribution licenses, please, contact our sales team. The Professional SDK grants you the right to distribute the SMSC Connectivity SDK together with your custom applications more than once.
