Our Integrated SMS Gateway

An SMS Gateway is integrated with all websites built on the Opnes Content Management Platform as part of the standard business solutions.

Visitors to one of our websites can now have the option to receive free updates from that site sent directly to their mobile phone about the latest products, services, news or events. This generates returning traffic to the site where visitors are interested in finding out more about what is on that website.

By simply accepting the option in the sites contact form to receive the information, the website harvests the mobile numbers to a phone book within the site owner's administration area. The owner can then easily send out text messages directly from their admin area, direct to the customer's mobile phone.

The SMS system is also being integrated into the take away system, which texts the visitor buying the take away online with details of the order and the shops number for future reference  This in turn gives the restaurant the opportunity to market directly to customers who have purchase from their store in the past.

Unlike most SMS gateways, text credits purchased through the Opnes gateway are not subject to ageing rules and the credits can be used as and when needed.

Opnes is always striving to ensure that we have the latest technology, designs and systems to ensure our customers benefit from the latest internet marketing solutions. By integrating in the SMS systems we have yet again ensured that we are further ahead of any website CMS currently available.

One Opnes client uses the system to generate increased trade to his restaurant during the quieter times of the week, by offering limited deals valid for a particular night only. Since using the SMS platform within his Opnes website, he has seen an increase of nearly 60% additional traffic during these normal quieter times.
