Key Takeaways

  • Scenario 143 is firewood-share / stacked-cord pickup lists — not compost bins, timebank hours, community-fridge holds, seed-library packets, record-fair crates, makerspace lasers, bike co-op bays, coworking hot desks, photo-studio sets, dark-kitchen bays, B2B RFQ samples, event wristbands, marina slips, P2P parking, tool rentals, storage-auction units, vehicle cash holds, lost-found lockers, charity vans, will-call merch, consignment, booth maps, wholesale pallets, RMA bays, meetup pins, escrow, age-gates, or seller KYC.
  • “Cord CORD-2, stack A, 08:30 pickup” is transactional. “Join the firewood mailing” is marketing. Split SIMs.
  • Free caps contacts at 300. Do not keep every closed hold in the gateway book.
  • Priced by devices and SMS send volume. You use your own phone and operator SMS credit. Developer is 25,000 SMS per year.
  • Staff console OTP stays on its own phone. A Saturday stack will starve it if shared.
  • REST list/send fields live in Developer Center — not a CodeCanyon firewood plugin. MCP, if you use it, is only a REST wrapper.

Summary

Scenario 143 is marketplace contact lists for stacked firewood cords. The yard owns the stack. The Android texts the buyer a cord and a clock. Priced by devices and SMS send volume. You use your own phone and operator SMS credit.

If you reuse last week’s “open cords” dump, you will text people whose stack already left — and they will treat CORD as spam.

CORD is not STOP

CORD / LATE / DONE belong on the yard Android. STOP on a “join mailing” blast must not mute a live hold. Auto-reply and STOP · two-way.

Cost

Priced by devices and SMS send volume. You use your own phone and operator SMS credit. Free: 1 device, 300 SMS lifetime, 300 contacts. Developer: 25,000 SMS per year. Paid plans uncap platform volume; devices still meter. Pricing.

Ops

Charge the yard radio at the stack. Doze · setup. Purge closed holds after close.

Security

A paid hold is not mailing-list consent. Trust Center · OTP.

  • OTP isolated.
  • STOP scopes documented.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Direct answers about android sms gateway api scenario 143.

Can we SMS the same CORD pin to buyer and yard from one list?

Send role-specific templates. A shared stack pin on a group list is how a third person takes the cord.

Does importing a firewood list include SMS credit?

No. You bring phones and operator airtime. We meter devices and platform send volume.

Is Free enough for a Saturday stack?

Free is 300 SMS lifetime on 1 device. Prove one cord, then use a paid device/volume plan.
