# SMS platform configuration

Pushwoosh enables you to send SMS messages to users by connecting your own SMS provider. Once configured, you can send [SMS](/product/messaging-channels/sms) in one-time campaigns and Customer Journeys, or through the [`Notify`](/developer/api-reference/messaging-api-v2/notify/) API method.

## Prerequisites

Before configuring SMS, ensure the following requirements are met:

* **Pushwoosh project**: A project where you want to enable the SMS channel.
* **SMS provider account**: An account with one of the [supported SMS providers](#supported-sms-providers).
* **Provider credentials**: The credentials required by your provider, such as account identifiers, API keys, a sender ID, or a phone number.

## Setting up the SMS configuration

To set up the SMS configuration, follow these steps:

1. Go to **Settings → Configure Platforms**, select **SMS**, and click **Connect**.

3. Enter the provider credentials. The required fields depend on the provider you select, such as account identifiers, API keys, a sender ID, or a phone number.

To get your credentials, refer to your SMS provider's documentation. Provider availability may depend on your account and region.

<Aside type="note">
MMS (subject + image attachments in an SMS message) is delivered only through **AbleMobile**. Other providers ignore the MMS fields and send the plain-text body. See [MMS](/developer/api-reference/messaging-api-v2/payload-reference/#mms) in the Messaging API v2 payload reference.

## Provider webhooks

Some providers also require callback URLs registered on the provider side so Pushwoosh can receive delivery receipts, inbound replies, and channel events such as Viber subscription status.

## What's next

After you connect a provider, register webhooks if your provider requires them, then send SMS from campaigns, journeys, or the API.
