Sending SMS
Bulk Messaging Dashboard makes it easy to send one, or one million messages.
Bulk SMS
5c SMS Web Console and API allows you to send one or one million messages at once. You can send directly to a list of numbers or upload a contact list. You can send your message to all your recipients at once, schedule your message or rate limit delivery of your messages.
Multi-Part Messages
A single SMS segment is 160 characters, but you can create a multi-part message of to 760 characters. We will automatically split up your message then put it back together on the recipients mobile. Check below your message text to see how many segments your message is made up of and how many characters you have remaining.
Delivery Reporting
Track the current delivery status of all your messages. We will let you know if a message has been received, failed or been delayed. You can track your messages in the Message History screen, or download the current status as a CSV.
Message Templates
Sending out lots of similar messages? Save your message text as a template on the 5c SMS Console. You can then create new messages from these templates in seconds.
Contact Manager
Our built in contact manager lets you manage simple or complex lists of hundreds of thousands of contacts and send a message out to all your contacts or one group of contacts with a single click.
Personalisation
Add a personal touch by including personalisation fields into your bulk messages. When sending to a contact list simply add where you'd like the person's name (or any other type of data) to appear. We'll then personalise every individual message as it is sent.
Dynamic Sender ID
Customise your Sender ID so you can let your recipients know who you are, using a text business name, use your own mobile number or a virtual mobile number. You can also use Reply to Web & Email to mask your real mobile number.
ACMA-certified telco
5c SMS is an ACMA-certified telecommunications provider (certified telco) for the SMS Sender ID Register. As a certified telco we are approved by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) to register Alphanumeric Sender IDs and send Sender ID messages on behalf of our customers, including non-ABN entities such as sole traders, individuals, and unincorporated associations.
Because of that standing we handle the identity evidence that the Reducing Scam Calls and Scam SMs Industry Code (C661:2024) and the SMS Sender ID Register Standard require, so you do not need to register your Sender ID with the ACMA yourself. For most customers our compliance team completes verification within one business day.
If your use case is non-standard (for example a Sender ID owned by a third party, or an international entity), please contact us.
