Advanced SMS Gateway Features

Multi-phone load balancing, smart routing, and monitoring

Beyond basic sending, the Varyshop SMS Gateway offers advanced features for scaling your SMS operations. This lesson covers multi-phone setups, routing strategies, rate limiting, and real-time monitoring.

Multi-Phone Load Balancing

Register multiple Android phones as gateways. The system automatically distributes the SMS load across all online phones using a least-loaded algorithm.

Higher Throughput

Send more SMS per hour by spreading the load across multiple devices.

Redundancy

If one phone goes offline, others continue sending. No single point of failure.

Regional Routing

Assign specific phones to specific customer groups or regions for better deliverability.

Rate Limiting and Daily Limits

SettingRecommended ValuePurpose
Daily Limit500 SMS/dayPrevents carrier flagging
SMS per Minute100/minControls sending speed
Heartbeat Timeout5 minutesDetects offline phones

Counter Reset

Rate limit counters reset automatically at midnight. No manual intervention required.

Domain-Based Routing

Assign domain filters to gateway phones so that specific phones handle campaigns for specific websites or business units. This keeps your SMS operations organized across multiple brands.

Blacklist Management

1

Automatic Detection

When a recipient replies STOP, the phone detects it and reports to the server.

2

Automatic Blacklisting

The server adds the number to the blacklist immediately.

3

Campaign Filtering

All future campaigns automatically skip blacklisted numbers.

4

Admin Control

Manage the blacklist through the Odoo interface — view, add, or remove entries.

Gateway Dashboard

The gateway dashboard shows real-time status of all registered phones: online/offline state, last heartbeat, daily SMS count, and error rates. Use it to monitor your fleet and diagnose issues quickly.

Each phone shows Online (green) or Offline (red) status
Last heartbeat timestamp confirms active connection
Daily sent counter tracks usage against the daily limit
Error log highlights failed deliveries for investigation

Android 30-SMS Limit

Some devices have a built-in limit of 30 SMS per 30 minutes. Fix with: adb shell settings put global sms_outgoing_check_max_count 10000

Key Takeaway

Advanced features let you scale SMS operations beyond a single phone. Load balancing, smart routing, rate limits, and real-time monitoring ensure your SMS campaigns are reliable, compliant, and efficient at any volume.
