Subject: Sending Texts from the UK to the US
Hello everyone,
I’m exploring options for adding SMS functionality to my open phone or another VOIP service. Are there any services available that don’t require an EIN or US registration?
Thank you in advance for your help! Best regards, and I hope you’re all doing well.

Hi there!
If you’re looking to set up SMS capabilities for your VoIP service without needing an EIN or US registration, there are a few options you can consider.
Twilio: This is a popular option that offers SMS services and is fairly easy to set up. They allow you to send and receive messages internationally, and you don’t necessarily need a US EIN to get started, though some verification may be required.
Plivo: Similar to Twilio, Plivo provides APIs for SMS services and also offers international messaging. They have a straightforward registration process which may not require US-specific documents.
MessageBird: This platform enables SMS messaging globally and has a user-friendly interface. They might have different requirements based on your location, so it’s worth checking their registration process.
Nexmo (Vonage API): Nexmo is another option for SMS services with international reach. Again, their requirements can vary, so you’d want to review them based on your region.
WhatsApp Business API: If SMS isn’t a strict requirement, using WhatsApp for business purposes can be a great alternative. This would allow you to send messages internationally without the traditional SMS costs.
I recommend checking the specific terms and requirements for each service to find the best fit for your needs. Good luck, and I hope this helps!
Best regards!
