USSD service

USSD - an interactive service for any mobile device

USSD (Unstructured Supplementary Service Data) is a standard service in GSM networks. Behind the long name is a convenient application with an intuitive interface, available on any mobile device.

USSD provides an interactive connection between the subscriber and the application, and the possibility of fast two-way communication with your customers.

How does it work?

USSD runs over the mobile channel in sessions, or "dialogues", during which the subscriber interacts with the application by choosing the menu items they need.

Menus and services are easy to create and configure to the needs of your company through the API.

USSD technology requires no additional software on the mobile device or on the SIM card. A session can be started either by the subscriber or by the system - via SMS, a flash call to a predefined web trigger, or a USSD short code.
