In this article, you will learn how to whitelabel a portal for your employees or your customers and let them send/receive SMS/MMS messages or faxes from VoIP.ms whitelabeled portal.à

Creating your Whitelabelled Portal

1.1 Go to Reseller menu, Reseller configuration (https://voip.ms/m/reseller/cli.php) and under Interface and Access menu, set the proper SMS & MMS charges and/or faxing charges.

VoIP.ms charges:

• SMS: $0.0075 per message
• MMS: $0.02 per message
• Faxing: $1.99 per month per DID and $0.029 per minute.

Note: You will notice a URL on top of the page named http://www.voipinterface.net/site/access/uid/(YourUID) . Keep a copy of this as it will be useful later on.

1.2 Still under Reseller configuration (https://voip.ms/m/reseller/cli.php), go to Branding Management. Set a page title, the colors of your choice for all the text available, the edit buttons, edit panels and your logos.

Here are the pixel sizes for each images that you can upload:

• Header Image: height 120X700
• Logo Image: 275x200
• Login background image: 1200x1200

1.3 Moving on under Services tab, go down the page until you reach ‘’’Services (Show)’’’ and enable SMS/MMS and/or Manage Faxes. Once done, save the changes down the page.

1.4 This step is completely optional. You can change the hostname of the reseller portal from VoIPinterface.net to your own hostname. In other words, http://www.voipinterface.net/site/access/uid/(YourUID) will be renamed to your company name.

In order to personalize the interface with a hostname, follow these steps:

• Configure a host with an A RECORD in your DNS that points to 208.100.60.92
• Enter in the field bellow the fully qualified host + domain name (e.g: interface.mydomain.com)
• Click "submit"
• Note that there is a one-time fee of $10.00 for adding your hostname to our system.

Creating your Package

2.1 Head to Reseller, Manage Rates & Packagesand press ‘’Create a new package’’.

2.2 Fill the following information under ‘’Details’’

• Package name: Name to retrieve the proper package
• Outbound markup: Set the markup percentage to 1%

2.3 Save the package.

Creating your Customer/Employee

If you already have sub accounts in your account, you can skip this step.

3.1 Head to Sub Account, Create Sub Account and fill the following information:

Information to fill:

3.3 Press Create Account.

3.4 Head to Reseller tab menu, Manage Client’s Account and click on ‘’’Create a new client account’’’.

3.5 Fill all the fields accordingly and before clicking ‘’’Create Account’’’, set the sub account you just created in the field ‘’’Sub account’’’. If you already have sub accounts and skipped the previous step, simply select the sub account that will be related to this user.

3.6 Make sure to add your newly created package under the option Reseller Client Package.

3.7 Press Create account and then press on the yellow gear icon.
