Tyr SMS Gateway

Global, highly reliable and technically rich SMS gateway to send and receive SMS between applications and mobiles. Send and receive SMS using our webSMS portal and SMS APIs that include SMPP (v3.3, v3.4, v5 supported), SMTP (emailSMS: email-to-SMS and SMS-to-email), and secure HTTP REST. Coverage highlights of the Tyr SMS Gateway include UK, France, Germany, Spain and Italy.

A2P (application-to-person) messaging is the sending of SMS messages from an application for delivery to mobiles. It is a quick and effective method for conveying a message to a large or small audience, and is used by businesses of all sizes, including the media, banks, retail and other enterprises. It is commonly used for time-critical alerts, reminders, OTP authentication codes, IoT/M2M and marketing promotions, but also as a communication channel between a business and its staff and customers.

Tyr SMS Gateway accounts can be used for sending messages to mobiles on almost any mobile network in the world. Accounts can also be used for P2A (person-to-application) SMS to receive inbound SMS from many mobile networks around the world, using Virtual Mobile Numbers (VMNs) or Virtual SIM Hosting (VSIM).

Virtual SIM Hosting

Virtual SIM Hosting (VSIM) provides a high performance method of receiving up to 200 SMS per second through a customer-supplied SIM. The mobile number of the SIM can be used to receive SMS without the restrictions of normal SIM card hosting. This service is a means of getting the performance of Virtual Mobile Numbers (VMNs) with the advantage of a national mobile number (e.g. a SIM from a mobile network in France for use with a service targeted at mobile users in France).

Virtual Mobile Numbers

Virtual Mobile Numbers (VMNs) bring high performance with low delivery latency of messages from mobiles to applications. A single Virtual Mobile Number allows an application to receive incoming SMS from all supported networks worldwide. The Virtual Mobile Numbers behave in the same way as a regular mobile number, but with the benefit of significantly higher throughput (200 SMS per second) to your application.

SMS APIs

The Tyr SMS Gateway has the capacity and technical capability to be used for sending high volumes of SMS messaging quickly and reliably to mobile users in a single country or worldwide. The SMPP API is well-suited to this use; however, we also provide our HTTP REST SMS API that can be equally suitable or our SMTP API (email to SMS / SMS to email) if you prefer. Using these APIs, messages can be sent from your application or systems through your Tyr SMS Gateway account and delivered within seconds. Delivery receipts are also provided in realtime to indicate the delivery status of your messages.

The Melrose Labs Tyr SMS Gateway service is available using the SMPP API, SMTP API, SIP MESSAGE API and the following HTTP REST SMS API:

curl --location --request POST https://api.melroselabs.com/sms/message/ \
	--header 'x-api-key: [API_KEY]' --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
	--data-raw '{ "source": "MelroseLabs","destination": "447712345678","message": "Hello World €£$" }'
