SARASOTA -- Bulletin Wireless, a leading developer and supplier of wireless messaging services, today announced the release of Bulletin Online services (BOs), a complete on-line provisioning tool for delivering advanced SMS applications and services over the Internet.

With the huge growth in the use of SMS today, Bulletin Wireless believes this online service will be a key facilitator for delivering its complete range of Short Message Services (SMS) to its customers across more than 400 mobile networks Bulletin Wireless has access to worldwide.

This new online web portal will enable Bulletin Wireless subscribers, resellers & business partners to activate and access its products and services, providing a unique online enabler and extension to core messaging communications already in place today.

BOs can be accessed from www.bulletinonline.com and users will be able to purchase and gain access to three very cost effective services immediately, including Bulletin Messenger, Email2SMS, and Bulletin Connect.

All stages of the provisioning process are provided including registration and licensing of resellers, companies and individuals onto Bulletin Wireless services, “resale” of Bulletin Wireless services by Business Partners, purchasing of prepaid and bulk SMS messages by credit card and additional support information such as User Guides, FAQs and Terms and Conditions.

Bulletin Wireless’s ASP hosted, 2 way SMS services are being delivered across all existing mobile infrastructures including GSM, CDMA, TDMA & GPRS Networks. All users require is a SMS capable wireless device, which would cover almost every mobile handset and wirelessly enabled PDA’s found in the marketplace today.

“BOs is a key component of Bulletin’s strategy to provide an easy to use activation system so customers can quickly access and gain the many benefits from using Bulletin SMS messaging services. A major advantage will be the ability for Bulletin Wireless business partners to quickly activate their own branded value add SMS messaging applications for their customers and therefore gain new and immediate alternate revenues with little or no major capital expenditure or infrastructure required on their part – the most important factor in today’s difficult telecommunications climate”, says Bruce Herbert, VP Worldwide Sales at Bulletin Wireless. “The primary key motivator for the corporate market is to keep control of spiralling land line to mobile costs, most CFO’s are experiencing increased phone costs due to the ease of an employee to pick up the phone and call a mobile when a simple 10 cent SMS message is more cost effective and increased efficiencies”

Text messaging from an application creates an electronic trail which can provided a record of communication for referencing as necessary.
