HOW IT WORKS

TextMarks SMS Request/Response allows riders to text to an easy to remember short code and receive real time arrival information by text message

Rider sends a SMS text message which includes transit agency's unique keyword followed by a stop number to 41411. Example: Rider would text 'YOURTA 32' to 41411
TextMarks makes an HTTP request to your server with the message
Your server looks up information and responds with real-time accurate schedule/arrival data
TextMarks sends your response back to the rider as a text message within seconds
