How to send a text to a mobile phone

[Tyler Wiebe]

I'd like to know how I can send a text to a mobile phone for free. By free, I mean, I don't need to pay to send the text. If I need to buy something to do this, that's okay, but I don't want to pay per text.

Does anyone know of how to do this in anyway from C#?

You can't do it on your own without paying the associated fees. To do it on your own, you would need to set up your own SMS Gateway. That would require a mobile phone subscription and paying any fees associated with texting.

You may be able to find a free SMS gateway online. But those usually come with their own catches. Such as advertisements or a limited number of free texts per month. If you go that route, you would have to look at their API to find out how to send said text as it would be different from service to service.

It is possible to use your normal mobile phone providers gateway, though you'd need to see if they provide such a facility. Depending on your subscription depends on if you have to pay
