Customers wishing to deliver more than textual information will be happy to know that we have, as of today, introduced technical provision for 8-bit Binary SMS.

Unlike plain text and Unicode, the use of binary data requires the use of external specifications (such as that belonging to Nokia's Smart Messaging and EMS) and so, whilst we will do our best to provide a detailed section within our Knowledge Base, we will not be providing technical support for issues that relate to coding/encoding etc.

Sending binary SMS has been made very simple and can take place through the most recent release of our SMS API (v2.1) and the Web-to-SMS facility of SMS Online.
