Delivery Status

The current state of an SMS message: pending, sending, sent, or failed. Tracks whether the message was successfully delivered to the recipient.

Home / Glossary / Delivery Status

Delivery status indicates the progress of an SMS message through the sending pipeline.

Status Flow in MySMSGate

  1. pending — message queued, waiting for phone to pick it up
  2. sending — phone claimed the job, attempting to send
  3. sent — carrier accepted the message
  4. failed — sending failed (balance refunded automatically)

You can check status via the API (GET /api/v1/sms?id=...) or see it in real-time on the SMS History page.
