In order to send SMS text messages to colleagues, customers, friends or family, you will need to buy credits. To buy credits using a Credit Card you will need to do the following:
Step 1: Select ‘My Account’ from the top menu of the BulkSMS Text Messenger.
Step 2: Click ‘Purchase More Credits…’. This will open a web browser which will automatically take you through the purchase process (the first time you purchase credits this process will be slightly different. Simply follow the prompts until you get to the screen below).
Step 3: Choose the number of credits you want to buy from the drop down menu. (e.g. from 200 credits up to 50,000 credits).
Step 4: Choose ‘Credit Card’ as your payment method
Step 5: Click ‘Continue’
Step 6: Confirm the transaction details by Clicking ‘Purchase Credits’
Step 7: The screen will go to the WorldPay (a secure payment gateway) website. Choose the Credit Card type you wish to use (i.e. Visa or MasterCard)
Step 8: Enter both the ‘card’ and ‘cardholder’ details.
Step 9: Click ‘Make Payment’
Step 10: Confirm the payment details.

You will also receive an email confirming your transaction. The email will be sent to the email address that BulkSMS has on file as entered by you when registering for or updating your BulkSMS account.
