Due to popular demand, today I introduce you all a script, with which you can connect your IPB forum with the mobile payment system of Fortumo. The procedure is easy but just in case I will describe it here. After successful installation the new payment method will integrate in your payments module and everything is done in the most functional and eye-pleasing way.

You will have to download the needed files from here and then read the explanations in the rest of this post, showing you what to do.

Installation:
1. Upload the files in them main directory of the site.
If everything is ok, the files should be located in the following places:
sources\classes\paymentgateways\class_gw_sms.php
sources\classes\paymentgateways\sms\sms_run.php
sources\classes\paymentgateways\sms\sms_status.php

2. From the admin panel of the forum you should install the new gateway – sms
3. Create a new payment package
4. When setting up the gateway for the selected package, in the field “Subscription / Gateway Combo: Product ID” enter: sms

Gateway Settings:

- Gateway Associated Email Address OR associated transaction key:
Enter your Fortumo key of the service (eg: e40233047d1af529af3c250c7isexample)

- Gateway Store / Seller ID
Enter your keyword (eg: TXT MYFORUM)

- Phone number
Enter the short code of the service (eg: 1916)

- User message
Enter the text explaining how the user can subscribe.
Where you want to have the phone number, enter #PHONE# and where you want to see the keyword, enter #KEYWORD#
(eg: In order to activate your subscription send an SMS to short code #PHONE# with text #KEYWORD# )

- Successful message
Enter the message that will be sent to the user as an SMS upon successful registration
(eg: Your VIP subscription is successfully activated)

- Not supported method message
Enter the message that will be sent to the user as an SMS for the packages not supporting SMS subscription
(eg: We’re sorry but the yearly subscription cannot be done through SMS. Select another payment method.)

- Package ID
Enter the ID number of the sms payment package(the number).
You can see it in the end of the url when you edit the package
