Abstract
A system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program and a computer-implemented method that enables short message service (SMS) text messaging to be integrated into existing applications is presented. Consistent with some embodiments, the method may include receiving a request from a client application to transmit a message to a recipient device. The method may further include validating the request to ensure that the telephone number is valid and that the message conforms to a predefined messaging standard. In response to successfully validating the request, the method causes transmission of the message to the recipient device.
