This feature is to make sure that we are able to serve everybody without any form of hindrances and we are so happy serving you

How it Works

To get started using the SMS short code format, you need to have set a 4 digit pin; you can set this by logging to your dashboard, navigate to profile settings page.
Click on SMS Settings Tab. Set your 4 digit code, and that’s it.

Step 2: Payscribe will only acknowledge an SMS that is sent from a particular number(s).
You can set this number(s) still on your account settings page, click on SMS settings tab.
Please note that any number except the one you added won’t be recognized by payscribe. Meaning that you send the SMS Short code only from the registered number(s)
