Developer API
Clickatell's Developer Solutions allow you to
SMS enable your website or application via a range of API''s.

We've gone to great lengths to ensure any developer who wants to interface an application, site or system with our messaging gateway can do so reliably and simply.

Our APIs are fast, simple and reliable, and built in such a way that they are easily manipulated to fit with any system.

And with our quick online registration you are able to get started and use them right away. A great extension to the API is the two-way (bidirectional) messaging capability, which is available in over a 100 countries.

Learn more about each of our API connectivity options below:

HTTP/S API
Our most popular connection, HTTP is one of the simpler ways to connect to the Clickatell API. It is used as an HTTP/Internet Post. Sign up.

XML API
If you are familiar with XML, Clickatell offers an XML interface with its own set of DTDs. Currently supports XML over HTTP. Sign up.

FTP API
Suitable for once off, high volume messaging. The FTP upload facility allows customers to upload text files to Clickatell's FTP site, and have the files automatically dispatched to message recipients. Sign up.

SMTP [E-mail to SMS] API
Another firm favourite, the SMTP API allows messages that are sent via e-mail to be converted to SMS. Popular with customers who already have an e-mail messaging system in place. Sign up.

SMPP API
Our most robust connection, suitable for customers who send large volumes of traffic. Clickatell offers a global SMPP connection using the SMPP 3.3 standard. Customers are required to have SMPP client software in place, and unlike our other APIs there are minimum volume requirements when using SMPP. Sign up.

COM Object API
Popular with windows-based developers, the Clickatell COM API's rich set of methods and definitions make it easy for a user to integrate SMS sending into their programs or ASP pages . Sign up.

Here's what we do to make your life easy:

We're a technology company ourselves, so we understand exactly what you need in order to do your job without delays.
We provide practical, useful script libraries and excellent documentation for each connection.
We offer one central interface to enable you to manage multiple connections, and from a business perspective you can have a single account through which you control multiple project integrations.
If you're running a team, you can also have sub-users on your account.
As you'd expect, we've made it just as simple for you to enable additional products such as premium rate and two-way messaging.
We offer a showcase for you to present products and make use of other developers' products.
We also host a developer forum for sharing information and seeking solutions.

* Please note that USA messaging requirements state that shortcodes be used for all SMS traffic, sent or received. If your volumes exceed 5,000 messages per a month to the US we recommend obtaining a dedicated shortcode.
