Important information : It is forbidden to collect funds by asking the users to send an surtaxed SMS from 1.50 to 3 Euros. SMS Premium numbers available by the operators do not allow setup of such service. On the other hand, it is possible to use the surtaxed SMS in order to recover funds legally.
Mobile Trend proposes you 2 solutions :
Receive the logo of the association ABC and 1,50 Euro will be paid out to ABC Association. For this the user sends by SMS ABC and receives in return an SMS that will activate Wap connection . By clicking on the link, the user goes to wap page allowing him to download the association logo.
To test the service, send UNAPEI by SMS to 81027.
What happens if the user does not have a wap connection ? In that case he can not download the logo. He will have to get in touch with his operator to activate the wap option. The user in any case will pay the surtax. In France the billing is MO, meaning the user is billed as soon as he sends a surtaxed SMS.
