SMS Gateway & Bulk SMS for New Zealand
Send to every NZ mobile network from the web or our API – from 10c per SMS
WebSMS is a New Zealand SMS gateway, running since 2004. Send one message or a bulk SMS campaign to Spark, One NZ and 2degrees mobiles from our web portal, or connect your own systems through the REST API.
10c + GST per SMS · pay as you go · no monthly fees or contracts · free account
Lower rates from 1,500 messages a month – see pricing. Before your first top-up: verify your mobile, a quick ID check and an NZ or AU card.
The gateway works with your existing systems – your CRM, booking software, calendar or custom applications – with delivery reports so you can see what was delivered. Perfect for appointment reminders, order notifications, and marketing campaigns.
