Date: April 26, 2021 | Updated: October 25, 2021 | Author: Moblie-man

Despite the fact that today calls not only within the MTS network, but also with other operators, have become very profitable, people do not stop using SMS messages. There is an explanation for this, because SMS is:

• Fast;
• Comfortable;
• Exactly.

Yes, sending a message sometimes turns out to be more expensive than calling a subscriber, but this is the only way, for example, to accurately and quickly convey important text or digital information that a person is not always able to perceive by ear.

Possibilities of the SMS sending service in the “My MTS” personal account

If you previously did not know about what can be achieved in the SMS and MMS service from MTS on the website, we will devote a little time to describing this nuance. Here are the main opportunities provided to all subscribers in the so-called personal account when writing SMS:

• Sending messages that will not indicate in any way the fact that they were written and sent on the Internet;
• Sending messages to any necessary telephone numbers, both domestic Russian operators and international cellular communication companies;
• Use the telephone directory from your device, from where you can easily import numbers;
• Uniting contacts into various groups and using mass messaging to groups;
• Classification of sent data in order to protect the transmitted information;
• Sending instant messages that do not appear in the messages folder on the recipient's phone;
• Using a message sending scheduler that allows you to set the sending time;
• Sending messages without using a mobile phone;
• View the message archive with detailed data on outgoing and incoming messages.

Conditions and cost of sending SMS messages

To be completely confident in the rationality of using the Personal Account service from MTS for writing SMS messages, you need to carefully consider the conditions under which this option is offered.

One of the main conditions is payment. A common misconception is that sending such messages is free. You need to understand the difference between sending free messages from a website on translit and sending SMS from your personal account, which are no different from regular messages sent from a phone. For such mailing, you will need to pay a fee according to a unique tariff tied to your SIM card number.

As for the size of messages, if the proposed figure is exceeded, the message will be automatically divided into parts, each of which will be charged separately.

Selecting a sending channel

You can use different sending channels (indirect gateways) for advertising or transactional traffic. For questions about the specifics of working with each type of traffic, optimal routing and clarifications, please contact the sales department.

When working via an indirect channel, the cost of SMS is calculated at basic rates, but the sender’s name is not saved - it is replaced with a digital name . And the delivery rate through the indirect channel is definitely lower than through the direct channel, without delivery guarantees.

How to send SMS through your personal account “My MTS”

You can use several options for sending SMS:

• Using the SMS PRO website from MTS, which is similar to a personal account;
• Using the familiar personal account for everyone.

To send messages from your individual account, follow these steps:

1. Go to your personal account “My MTS” on the website and complete the authorization procedure.
2. Select the option that corresponds to sending different types of messages.
3. Type a text, select a number and send a message.

Sending a message asking for a call back

If you are left without the ability to make calls due to insufficient funds in your account, it is very convenient to partially solve the problem using a message - you need to send a free SMS requesting a call back. To do this, on your mobile phone you need to dial a USSD request of the form *144*phone number of the subscriber# to whom you want to send a message with the request. For example: *144*79XXXXXXXXXX#.

The number entry format can be any:

• 79XXXXXXXXX;

View SMS on the SMS PRO website.

In their personal account on the MTS PRO website, subscribers have the opportunity to store their SMS archive, which will be available for viewing at any time. But for this you need to connect a special service, which is called “SMS archive”.

3 connection options

1. Send a message to number 232 . The body of the message should contain any text of your choice: “Per” or “ON”, we receive a response message in which a short one-time password will be indicated. Next, log into your personal account on the SMS Pro website, where we activate the service using the received password.
