To send and receive SMS messages to and from your users, they'll have to subscribe. Your users can register either via the Zeep Mobile panel, or by texting the word JOIN to your keyword.
Your users can use the Zeep Panel to subscribe to receive SMS messages from you. Pick a page on your website that requires a user to log in with a unique username. Don't place the panel somewhere that's accessible without a username and password.
To add the panel, add the following code to the page...
<iframe style="width: 100%; height: 300px; border: none;" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" id="zeep_mobile_settings_panel" src="https://www.zeepmobile.com/subscription/settings?api_key=[your key]&user_id=[your authenticated user]" > </iframe>
Next, replace [your key] with the API key you just created. You can look it up in your account.
Once you've added the mobile settings code, you'll need to dynamically set the user_id variable with a unique identifier to match the user currently looking at the panel. Where the code says:
&user_id=[your authenticated user]
...you will need to use your web server's ability to dynamically replace [your authenticated user] with a unique ID that your website has assigned to your user. We don't care what type of ID it is: it could be a number like 1234, the user's e-mail address, their username or some other random string. However, each user in your app must have a unique ID. Zeep Mobile needs the user_id when corresponding with your web app.
View the page where you inserted the code. If everything worked out right you should see the panel.
Go ahead and provide your info. In a few seconds you should receive a text message asking you to confirm that website can send you messages.
