SMSGlobal can post back delivery receipt information to a URL, hosted on your own server for example.

This URL might be a script that captures the delivery information and stores it in your database. Refer to the technical documentation on delivery receipts for more information.


1. Select ‘API & Integrations’ on the left-hand menu of MXT, click on ‘Delivery Receipts’.

2. Enable delivery receipts by switching the toggle switch 'On'.

3. Select ‘URL’, enter a URL that you would like your delivery receipts sent back to.

4. Make sure you click ‘Update Settings’ to save changes.

Tip: There are a number of online tools that you can create temporary postback URLs for testing purposes such as https://requestbin.com/
