The Short Message Peer-to-Peer (SMPP) protocol is utilized for sending and receiving SMS traffic between various entities. SMPP is particularly favored among active SMS users, including aggregators and operators.
SMPP Server Data:
-
Host: smpp.bsg.world
-
Port: 2730
Bindings and Throughput
Whenever an SMPP account is set up, you'll receive the maximum number of binds allowed and the maximum throughput. Typically, this will be around 3 binds and 50 messages per second. Please note that the BSG SMPP server supports only one connection via transceiver (TRX) or multiple connections via transmitter (TX) with one connection via receiver (RX) if necessary.
IMPORTANT: Your IP address needs to be whitelisted on our side, so please send your request to our email: support@bsg.world.
Username and Password
Your username (system_id) and password (SMPP-password) will be provided by your BSG account manager, or you can generate an SMPP-password in your account settings.
Security
For SMPP connections, BSG requires whitelisting your originating IP. To gain access, please send your username and originating IP to our Customer Support team at: support@bsg.world.

Bind PDU
An SMPP bind_receiver, bind_transceiver, or bind_transmitter PDU request has a fixed set of fields. Most fields are irrelevant to us. In fact, we only read the system_id, password, system_type, and interface_version fields, and the rest is ignored.
Field Name |
Description |
system_id |
The username |
password |
SMPP-password |
system_type |
IGNORED if you want to use the default tariff or set tariff-x, where x is the code of the tariff name |
interface_version |
The SMPP protocol version you want to use |
addr_ton |
IGNORED |
addr_npi |
IGNORED |
address_range |
IGNORED |
Interface_Version
The BSG SMPP server supports SMPP protocol versions 3.4 and 5.0. NOTE for SMPP 5.0! In case the command SUBMIT_SM_RESP contains a status with an error code, the length of PDU is 16 octets.
Data_Coding
The values for the data_coding field are not solidly declared in the SMPP spec, so each SMPP server is more or less required to give its own definition.
Value |
Encoding |
0 |
Default Alphabet (GSM 3.38), 7-bit characters |
1 |
IA5/ASCII, 7-bit characters |
3 |
ISO-8859-1 (LATIN1), 8-bit characters |
5 |
Japanese (JIS), multi-byte characters |
6 |
Cyrillic (ISO-8859-5), 8-bit characters |
7 |
Latin/Hebrew (ISO-8859-8), 8-bit characters |
8 |
Unicode (USC-2), 16-bit characters |
14 |
Korean (KS C 5601), multi-byte characters |
For 7-bit character sets, a maximum of 160 characters can fit into an SMS message; for 8-bit character sets, the limit is 140 characters; for 16-bit character sets, the limit is 70 characters; for multi-byte character sets, the limit is somewhere between 70 and 140 characters, depending on which characters make up the text of the message (For multi-byte character sets, most characters are 16 bits; some of the more common characters are eight bits).
