FAQs

Kudosity runs direct connections to Telstra, Optus and TPG with intelligent routing, a 99.9% uptime SLA and infrastructure hosted in Australia. No grey routes, no carrier hops, no surprises. Marketing, transactional, OTP and alert messages all hold up at scale.

Can I use both API and web portal to send SMS?

Yes. Use the SMS API for developer-led integrations or the web portal for marketing and operations teams. Run one-off campaigns, schedule sends or build automated journeys without engineering time.

Is Kudosity platform suitable for Australian businesses?

Yes. Kudosity is ACMA compliant, aligned with the Spam Act 2003 and the Australian Privacy Principles, with infrastructure hosted in Australia. We work with Australian brands across healthcare, automotive, ecommerce, retail, ISVs and SaaS.

What is a virtual SMS service?

A virtual SMS service lets you send and receive messages over a digital interface (web or API) using a virtual mobile number. Most Australian businesses use it for two-way messaging, notifications and customer support, particularly in SaaS and ecommerce.

What are best practices for SMS campaigns in Australia?

Get explicit consent (the Spam Act 2003 requires it for marketing messages), keep the message short and outcome-led, segment your list, personalise with merge fields and always include a clear opt-out (STOP works as a standard keyword). For inspiration, browse our SMS templates.

What is SMS broadcast?

SMS broadcasting sends the same message to a large list at once. Australian businesses use it for promotional offers, emergency alerts, weather warnings, AGM communications and event reminders.

What’s the difference between an SMS service and an SMS platform?

An SMS service is the ability to send a text message. An SMS platform layers on API access, automation, list management, compliance controls, reporting and integrations, which is what most Australian businesses actually need.
