I am curious about SMS aggregators and I would like to get info about build one but I have no point to start getting info. Do you know?

  1. Necessary hardware/Software
  2. Good SMSCs to start the bussiness
  3. Most price-competitive SMSCs
  4. Minimum SMS volume to start
  5. Any contact/company

To build your own you could probably start by registering to become a PRSP and content provider. Then you could get a short code from a Mobile Service Provider. Connect to the Mobile Service Provider using SMPP Protocol. The Mobile Service Provider should give you cridentials: username passwords etc to connect to them. You could then use Kannel: Open Source WAP and SMS gateway to configure a value added service gateway that you could use to provider sms aggregation services amongst other services such as football updates etc. You could also host more than one service(client) on the same shortcode/vas gateway.

  • for SMPP you have to configure kannel on a linux box preferably and then you could use the kannel config file to connect to the smsc. read the user guide for more info [here](http://www.kannel.org/download/1.4.0/userguide-1.4.0/userguide.html). – Jefkine Kafunah Feb 18 '12 at 23:06
