Latest Version 1.0.34. Released Jun 01, 2026 Click HERE to view the Changelog

Fixed OTP expiring immediately on MySQL/MariaDB installs where explicit_defaults_for_timestamp is OFF (default on MariaDB <10.10, which CloudPanel ships). The first NOT NULL TIMESTAMP column auto-acquired an implicit ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, so the OtpService follow-up save() rewrote expires_at to the current timestamp – every OTP expired the moment it was created regardless of the configured TTL. The migration re-declares smsg_otps.expires_at with an explicit DEFAULT and no ON UPDATE clause. PostgreSQL / SQLite installs no-op (never affected). Reported by hafsamart.com after migrating from cPanel to DigitalOcean + CloudPanel

Async SMS dispatch on a dedicated ‘sms-gateways’ queue (carried forward from v1.0.33): VPS / dedicated installs running a queue worker now return checkout / login pages immediately while the carrier HTTP call runs in the background. Shared-hosting installs (QUEUE_CONNECTION=sync, Laravel default) keep the previous inline behaviour – no jobs ever sit stuck on those installs. Point a worker at the new queue with: php artisan queue:work—queue=sms-gateways,default

SMS Gateways is built with Laravel and is plug-and-play: upload the zip, activate, paste credentials. No composer require needed — every driver uses Laravel’s HTTP facade directly. The plugin includes transactional + marketing SMS, OTP for registration / login / checkout / order tracking / job applications / hotel bookings / real-estate consultations, STOP / START / HELP keyword consent management, outbound webhook CRUD with HMAC-SHA256 signatures, inbound provider delivery callbacks, queued dispatch with exponential retry, abandoned-cart recovery SMS, email-to-SMS auto-mirror, and Envato license activation.

SMS Gateways is the perfect solution for Botble store owners who need transactional confirmation SMS, marketplace operators who need vendor / candidate / agent notifications, real-estate platforms requiring consult inquiry alerts, job boards needing application status updates, car-rental sites needing booking confirmations, and hotel booking sites needing arrival reminders.

⚠ Important Requirement

This plugin requires Botble CMS. It works on its own (transactional SMS via the public API) and integrates automatically with any of these host plugins when present: plugins/ecommerce, plugins/marketplace, plugins/real-estate, plugins/job-board, plugins/car-manager, plugins/hotel. It works with all Botble scripts — e-commerce (Shofy, MartFury, Ninico, Nest, Farmart, Wowy), real estate (Homzen, Hasa, Flex-Home), job board (Jobcy, Jobzilla), car rental/listing (Auxero, Carento), hotel booking (HotelHub).

The plugin integrates seamlessly: customers receive SMS confirmations on order placement, OTP codes on signup or checkout, vendors receive SMS on registration approval, candidates get application status updates, hotel guests get booking confirmations + check-in reminders. Admins manage everything from a clean admin UI — drivers, country routes, templates per (event × locale × subject), delivery logs with retry, consent audit trail, outbound webhook endpoints.

We have a dedicated support center for all of your support needs. It includes our Documentation and Ticket system for any questions you have. We usually get back to you within 12-24 hours.

Free Installation – If you face any problem during installation – we will help you and It’s FREE

Plug-and-Play Installation – Upload the zip, activate, paste credentials. No composer install needed — every driver uses pure HTTP via Laravel’s HTTP facade.

7 Built-in SMS Drivers – Twilio, Vonage (Nexmo), AWS SNS, Plivo, Msg91 (India DLT Flow), Fast2SMS (India), BulkSMSBD (Bangladesh) — and a smsg_driver_register filter hook for adding your own drivers without touching plugin source.

Country-Based Driver Routing – Map E.164 prefixes to driver keys (e.g. +91 → Msg91, +880 → BulkSMSBD, +1 → Twilio, +44 → Vonage) with longest-prefix match. Save 60-80% on SMS cost for global ecom by routing each country to its cheapest local driver.

Multi-Vertical Support – Works with ecommerce customers, marketplace vendors, real-estate accounts, job-board candidates / companies, car-manager customers, and hotel customers — all via Laravel events, zero host-plugin edits.

OTP Subsystem – SHA-256 hashed code storage (never plaintext), configurable TTL + max attempts, per-phone hourly rate limit (brute-force hardening), opaque API tokens.

Generic Submit-Gate OTP Pattern – One reusable abstract middleware/controller pair. Apply OTP confirmation to ecommerce checkout (reduce fake COD orders), job-board apply (reduce spam applications), car-manager booking (reduce fake test-drive requests), real-estate consult (reduce fake inquiries), hotel booking (reduce fake bookings) — all via the same pattern.

Anonymous Order Tracking via Phone + OTP – Standard pattern for South-Asian / Middle-Eastern ecom: visitor enters order ID + phone, receives 6-digit code, then sees order detail. No email needed. Anti-enumeration: wrong phone+order pair still generates an OTP (no oracle).

Templates Per Event × Locale × Subject – Every SMS body is admin-editable. Variable picker, GSM-7 / UCS-2 segment counter with cost estimate, live preview with sample data, per-template test-send to any phone.

Delivery Logs – Every send tracked: status flow (queued → sending → sent → delivered / failed / rejected), provider message ID, cost, currency, retry count, error message, request/response payload. Filterable by status, driver, event, date range, phone wildcard. Bulk retry.

Outbound Webhook CRUD – Multi-endpoint, per-endpoint HMAC-SHA256 secret, 6 lifecycle events (sms.queued / sms.sent / sms.delivered / sms.failed / sms.opted_out / otp.verified). Enable / disable without losing the URL. In-admin Test button.

Inbound Provider Delivery Callbacks – Twilio HMAC-SHA1, Vonage HMAC-SHA256, AWS SNS X.509 (via openssl_verify), Plivo HMAC-SHA256, Fast2SMS token auth. Raw-body signature verification middleware (captures request bytes before Laravel body parsing). BulkSMSBD status is polled on a schedule since it lacks push delivery receipts.

STOP / START / HELP Keyword Handling – Inbound replies auto-update consent rows across all subjects sharing that phone. Per-channel audit (transactional / otp / marketing) with IP, UA, source, timestamp.

Envato License Activation – In-admin purchase-code validation against Botble marketplace relay. One-domain-per-license. Encrypted at rest. Self-healing plaintext → ciphertext migration.

Queued Dispatch + Exponential Retry – Failed sends retry with backoff (1m → 5m → 30m → 2h → 12h). ShouldBeUnique on the dispatch job prevents double-send. Watchdog re-queues stuck-sending rows.

Abandoned-Cart Recovery SMS – Scheduled command scans stale carts, dispatches recovery SMS once per cart (idempotent), respects marketing-channel consent + min-total threshold. Configurable delay (24h / 48h / 72h).

Email-to-SMS Auto-Mirror – Opt-in per email-template slug — when an email fires, a matching SMS auto-fires to the same recipient. Admin selects which email templates to mirror.

Email-Template Sync Command – php artisan sms:import-email-templates imports all ec_email_templates as SMS templates (HTML stripped, capped at 320 chars). Idempotent.

FOB SMS Gateway Coexistence + Migration – Detects FriendsOfBotble SMS Gateway and defers Registered listener to avoid double-OTP. php artisan sms:import-fob migrates fob_sms_logs + fob_otps to our tables.

GDPR-Ready – Per-subject JSON export endpoint, cascade delete, php artisan sms:purge-subject for right-to-be-forgotten requests.

Shared-Hosting Friendly – Pure HTTP (no SDKs to install), chunked log purge (500-row LIMIT loop), single-cron scheduling, file-cache safe, SNS X.509 cert cached 24h, 30s execution budget. Health-check admin card with cron / queue / openssl / curl / DB-write probes.

UUID / ULID / BIGINT Safe – All polymorphic columns use $table->morphs() (Botble Blueprint auto-swaps). Routes use wherePrimaryKey(). Matrix-tested.

Translations – Available in 42+ languages including English, Vietnamese, French, German, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Hindi, Portuguese, Russian, Turkish, Indonesian, Bengali, and more.
