Today we are releasing an awesome feature. Have you ever wanted the recipient of an SMS to take extra notice of your message? Would you like to be able to send use-once login codes to your intranet users without filling the SMS history of your users cell phones?

You can now send Flash SMS messages with 46elks. Flash SMS messages (or class 0 SMS messages as GSM standards call them) are sent directly to the screen of the target cellphone, even if the cell phone is locked. And does not generally get stored into the cell phone’s SMS history. Sending flashsms is ideal for things such as urgency alerts and two-factor authentication. The picture shows how it looks like as a sample on an iPhone

We are pleased to announce that our platform now support sub accounts. Each sub account gets it’s own set of 46elks phone numbers, SMS messages and Calls history. Yet credits are used from the master account – just as expected.

It’s easy to create sub accounts and you can do it automatically using our API. Sub accounts are for instance very useful if you distribute your application to your customers or their servers. You can now embed API creditentials for one customer without compromising the security for your other customers.

If you are an invoicing customer, the usage for each of your subaccounts will be shown on your invoices. You can also use our API to find out how much credits each subaccount has used so you can know what to bill you own customers.

Today we  are announcing our status web page in which you can check to see how do we feel technically at every moment. This is part of our transparency and confidence regarding robustness of our services and the platform in general. We thought it would be really cool to see how our elk servers feel during the days and nights
