Billing

Your relationship with your customers will place constraints on the way that you collect revenue. Bulletin Connect offers a range of billing solutions to cover every situation.

Prepay Account

A great way to get started. Simply sign up online, top up your account with a credit card, and start sending messages!

Invoiced Account

For users that send large numbers of messages, we offer volume discounts and invoiced accounts. Contact support@bulletinwireless.com for details.

Mobile Account Billing

If your customers don't have to sign up to receive your premium content, they're more likely to buy. We can help you negotiate with network providers to allow you to bill your clients' mobile accounts directly.

Integrated Billing

Let us handle customer billing for you. Setting up and maintaining a billing system is often the most difficult part of a project. Integrating with our billing system is an easy, two-step process:

1. Use Single Sign On
   
   
   
   First, connect your application to our billing system (BOS) with the industry standard SAML protocol.
   1. The customer navigates to your SMS enabled website
   2. The customer is not logged-in, so your website redirects the customer's browser to the BOS website.
   3. After the customer logs in, the browser is redirected back to your service. BOS passes your website a key.
   4. Your website passes the key to BOS to confirm the login.
   5. BOS passes back some useful information, including the customer's mobile number and account ID.
2. Bill a Message

Then all you need to do to bill a message is pass us the customer's account ID when you send a message. We do the rest.

1. After logging in, the customer asks your website to send a message.
2. Your website passes the message to Bulletin Connect, along with the customer's account ID.
3. Bulletin Connect debits the customer's account.
4. Bulletin Connect sends your message to the mobile device.
5. Bulletin Connect sends a receipt to your website.
