Thank you rikki. is this free of cost ?

Fraid not but is it cheap

Free is going to be difficult to find/use-reliably. Why? Because if it were free and easy, you’d receive 200 spam sms messages a day on your cellphone instead of emails in your inbox.

Totally agree :slight_smile: Unfortunately there are no reliable free sms service provides so you have to pay for the sms service. Most SMS gateways provide external API which can be used to do that. You can check SMS notification | PHP SMS API to send SMS through a web application which seems to work a lot easy. Their integration code is pretty simple:

<?php
$SMSLIB[“phone”] = ‘44111222333’; // your phone number
$SMSLIB[“key”] = ‘abcdefghijklmnopqrs’; // your personal API code
include(“smslib.php”); // we will provide you with smslib.php file
sendSMS(“test message”, $SMSLIB[“phone”]); // function which sends the message
?>

and you will need authentication key. The best thing is that if you want you can add IP or country based filters so you can block specific IP addresses or countries.
