Bulk SMS service provider in Assam - SmsHorizon

Bulk SMS service across Assam

Assam is the gateway to the Northeast and the largest economy in the region, and businesses here now run on timely text messages. A bank in Guwahati sends OTPs, a tea estate near Jorhat confirms a dispatch, a college in Silchar shares results, all over SMS.

You can cover Guwahati, Dibrugarh, Silchar, Jorhat, Tezpur, Nagaon and the rest of the state from a single account. Full Assamese Unicode lets you message people in the language they read every day.

DLT registration and compliance, handled for you

Every commercial SMS in India must go through DLT, the TRAI-mandated registration on a blockchain platform. It covers your business entity, your sender IDs (headers) and the message templates you send.

For a business in Assam getting started, this is usually the only real hurdle. Our team registers your entity, headers and templates for you, free of charge, and keeps you compliant as you add new message formats.

Once registration clears, most accounts are live within 3 to 5 days. From there you send from the web panel or the API, with a GST invoice on every payment.
