    Integrate Vonage with Kartra
  4. Configure the new SMS gateway:
    • Gateway name: Name your integration. This is to help you identify it in your account.
    • API Key: Copy and paste from your Vonage account
    • API Secret: Copy and paste from your Vonage account
    • Send-from Phone number: Enter the phone number SMS messages will be sent from.
      • Important: The "Send from" number is typically generated by your SMS provider and should not be an arbitrary number. Please check your SMS provider for details on what your "Send from" number should be.
  5. Send yourself a test SMS to confirm that the gateway is connected properly. The test must be sent to a live phone number that is capable of receiving text messages.
  6. Click Create in the top right corner of the window to save the integration.

If you are unable to find the API key or API secret on Vonage please contact Vonage support for help.

If your Vonage information does not work via Kartra (and it is confirmed accurate by their support), then please contact Kartra support.
