Texts that turn walk‑ins into regulars.

For the counter, the pickup shelf and your loyalty program, sent to customers who said yes.

POST /api/blast

Promos and flash sale alerts

One message to every customer on your opt-in list is a single blast request. Promos go only to customers who agreed to receive them.

POST /api/sms

Tell customers their reservation or repair is ready for pickup, straight from your POS. One message per order.

YourStore: Hi Ana, your order #2087 is ready for pickup at our Quezon Ave. branch until Oct 25.

POST /api/bulk

Loyalty and points notices

Points balances, rewards and member-only offers, each with the customer's own numbers. A batch is one bulk request.

YourStore: Hi Mark, you have 1,250 points. Use them on your next visit before Dec 31.

Why UniSMS

Built for repeat business.

Your store's name as the sender

Customers see your registered Sender ID, on every network, so your promos look like you, not spam.

Track every campaign

A webhook for every message with your campaign metadata, so you can count deliveries per promo.

Credits that cover the season

Prepaid credits never expire, and failed messages are refunded automatically.

One account, every branch

Send for all your branches from one account, with a Sender ID per brand if you need one. Postpaid for chains, by application.

Getting started

Live in three steps.

  1. 01

    Create an account

    Upload your opt-in list from the dashboard, or connect your POS with an API key. The default Sender ID reaches Globe and DITO.

  2. 02

    Apply for your store's Sender ID

    Top up ₱2,500 or more for a SID token and submit your business documents from the dashboard.

  3. 03

    Promote on every network

    Telco approval takes 7–14 business days. Then your promos reach Smart, TNT and Sun customers too, under your name.

FAQ

Questions from retailers.

Who can we send promos to?
Only customers who agreed to receive marketing messages from you. Unsolicited marketing and purchased or scraped lists aren't allowed under our Acceptable Use Policy.
How much does a promo cost?
Each message is 1 credit for up to 160 characters, up to 5 credits for the 670-character maximum. That's ₱0.50 per SMS, down to ₱0.35 at volume.
Can our promos include emoji or a link?
Emoji aren't supported. Links need your own Sender ID with links enabled; the default Sender ID can't send links.
Can we send without connecting our POS?
Yes. Export your opt-in list as a CSV, with the number in the first column and the message in the second, and upload it from the dashboard.
Can we see how many messages were delivered per campaign?
Yes. Put a campaign name in the message metadata. Every delivery webhook carries it, so you can count message.sent and message.failed per campaign.
We have several branches. Do we need an account for each?
No. One account can send for every branch. Use metadata to tag messages by branch, and apply for a Sender ID per brand if you sell under more than one name. Postpaid billing for chains is available by application.
