Try this sample code from Twilio, I used it during one of the hackathons. For demonstration purposes, this may help. Depending on the country.

American Telcos allows you to send text messages in the form of emails. I have not played with this for many years, but I remember that Verizon was [Phone #]@vtext.com , where [Phone #] is the 10-digit cell phone number. There are different domains for different Telcoms that you can find. Best of all, it's free, instead of paying for a text message.

If your phone is an android, you can use an application, such as SMS Gateway API , which will turn your phone into an SMS gateway and allow you to send and receive messages via PHP.

 $URL = "http://v2.smsgateway.me/API/Send/Single.php"; $postdata = http_build_query( array( 'Username' => " [e-mail] ", 'Password' => "password", 'Number' => "[phone]", 'Message' => "Hello World!", 'Device' => 1, //Send from device 1 (optional) 'SendAt' => (time() + (60 * 60)), //Send in 1 hours time (optional) 'ExpireAt' => (time() + (60 * 60 * 2)) //Expire in 2 hours time (optional) ) ); $opts = array('http' => array('method' => 'POST', 'header' => 'Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded', 'content' => $postdata)); $context = stream_context_create($opts); $result = file_get_contents($URL, false, $context); echo $result;
