- Last updated on November 16, 2022 at 12:08 PM
To receive messages to your VOODOO portal, you’ll need to have a Virtual Mobile Number (VMN). This is a mobile number built into your portal which people can reply to.
This guide is directed towards people using our new streamlined Inbound SMS purchasing system, which will give you step by step instruction on how to buy a new Virtual Mobile Number.
HOW TO BUY A VIRTUAL MOBILE NUMBER
Go to Inbound SMS > Numbers > New Number
A VMN will be assigned to you automatically. You will be able to view this after making the final purchase.
COST
The cost for this is £10 + VAT per month. There are no setup fees and it's a rolling 30-day contract. You can cancel it at any point.
PAYMENT
You'll need to save a payment card to the platform, which we'll charge on a regular basis for your VMN(s). The same card will be charged for each VMN you purchase.
Your VMN will now be attached to your account and you can go to your Inbox and view it and set-up Actions or Keywords.
MANAGING PAYMENT CARDS
You can update your payment card that is charged for your VMN(s) via My Account > Stored Cards > VMNs.
Please note that if your VMN stored card is deleted, any VMNs that are charged to that card will be removed from your account.
