With the trials, we give customers an SMS Trials Package which they can find in https://integration.dev.unifonic.com/payment/packages the packages tab in their account.

With it, we also give customers access to UNITEST sender ID

Using the Trials from the platform GUI (Campaigns & Quick SMS)

When they use the UNITEST sender ID, we restrict the recipients as seen in the screenshot below, the user can only send messages to himself from Campaigns & Quick SMS

Campaigns:

Quick SMS:

We also restrict the content to a predefined test message in English & Arabic

To select the Arabic trial message, the user has to select it from the template below (same steps for the campaigns and quick SMS)

Using the trials from the APIs
Key things to explain:

1. The customer must use the same “UNITEST” sender id as they did in campaigns & quick SMS.
2. The recipients will be any number that belongs to users added on the account of the customer.

The content has to be one of the following:

• English:

This is a trial SMS message in English. Change template to try other language.

• Arabic:

.هذه رسالة تجريبية نصية قصيرة باللغة العربية. قم بتغيير القالب لتجربة لغة أخرى

SMS Service Trials Process

1. A SMS trial package will be added on UC and will let the account managers assign it to the customers.
2. From Unifonic side, a sender ID will be given with few limitations as the following.

a. Limiting the recipient and content of the trial messages to a number of users in the account in case messages are sent from APIs.

b. Setting a fixed message content for these sender IDs.

In case the customer is trying to send trial messages from either campaign or API, there will be linked instructions that illustrate how these trials work.
