How does SMS integration work technically?

Behind an SMS integration there is more than a simple API call. I take care of the entire technical implementation – from gateway selection to secure transmission.

SMS gateways such as Twilio, Messagebird (now Bird) or Swiss providers like SMSAPI.ch provide a REST API through which SMS messages are sent programmatically. I integrate these APIs into your website and handle all aspects: authentication via API keys, secure transmission, error handling and logging.

For incoming SMS or status updates (delivery confirmations), webhooks can be set up: your server automatically receives a notification as soon as an SMS has been delivered or the user replies.

For two-factor authentication (2FA), your system generates a one-time code (OTP), sends it via SMS and validates the user's input. I implement time-based OTPs (TOTP) with configurable validity periods and rate limiting to prevent abuse.

I help you choose the SMS provider: for Swiss numbers and GDPR-compliant processing I often recommend Swiss or European providers. Twilio is ideal for international projects.

Typical SMS use cases

SMS is reliable, immediate and reaches almost every user – even without a smartphone app.

Two-factor authentication

One-time codes via SMS protect sensitive areas such as admin logins, payment processes or customer account changes.

Order confirmations

After purchase, customers immediately receive an SMS with order number and status link – without having to open their email inbox.

Appointment reminders

Automatic SMS reminders shortly before an appointment reduce no-shows and are ideal for practices, salons or service providers.

Password reset

Secure password reset via SMS code – without the risk of reset links ending up in spam folders.

Marketing messages

Targeted SMS campaigns with high open rates – ideal for time-sensitive offers or events (with GDPR-compliant opt-in).
