Configuring SMPP Connection

Mobivate BulkSMS supports SMPP connections for high-throughput and low-latency message delivery. SMPP access is authenticated using your existing API key.

Authentication

To connect to Mobivate BulkSMS over SMPP, you will need a valid API key.

Your API key is split into two parts and used as the SMPP credentials:

• The first half of the API key becomes your system_id

• The second half of the API key becomes your password

Example

If your API key looks like this:

v-1234-56789-acde-fffff:aaaaa-bbbbb-ccccc-ddddd-eeee

Your SMPP credentials would be:

SMPP Field	Value
system_id	v-1234-56789-acde-fffff
password	aaaaa-bbbbb-ccccc-ddddd-eeee

Required Permissions

Your API key must have the following permission enabled:

create:SingleSMS

Without this permission, SMPP message submission will be rejected.

SMPP Connection Details

Use the following connection settings when configuring your SMPP client:

Setting	Value
Hostname	<hostname>
Port	2775

The hostname shown in this documentation use a sample hostname. The production SMPP hostname is provided by our team upon request.

Security Recommendations

We strongly recommend restricting API key access by whitelisting IP ranges to prevent unauthorized use.

IP restrictions can be configured when managing your API keys in the Mobivate dashboard.

Treat your SMPP credentials with the same care as your API keys. Do not expose credentials in client-side code or public repositories.
