Key Takeaways

  • A compliance checklist for open source / GitHub SMS gateways is STOP, consent, keys, and logs — MIT does not waive any of it.
  • Do not rewrite the open-source hub. This is a printable gate.
  • This is not legal advice. Counsel owns DLT, TCPA, GDPR, and local SMS rules.
  • No piracy / cracked CodeCanyon “workaround” belongs on the list.
  • You still bring the Android and operator credit. GitHub does not pay the carrier.
  • If you use our hosted plane instead, devices + volume still meter.

A license is not a regulator

Compliance checklist for open source / GitHub is the gate before a DIY Android SMS gateway sends to humans: consent flags, STOP on the inbound SIM, no OTP in Slack, keys out of the README. The repo license is orthogonal. A permissive clone does not make unsolicited bulk legal.

Category: Android SMS gateway open source. Bulk OSS spoke: OSS for bulk. Product AUP: acceptable use.

“If STOP is a GitHub issue template, you are not ready to send.”

Git branch with three compliance ticks
Clone ≠ compliant. The SIM still has a regulator.

OSS hub stays the category page

README red flags and when a maintained plane wins stay on the hub. This page is a printable list. Our API, if you leave DIY: Developer Center.

Markets differ. A handset path is not a loophole around A2P registration where it applies. We will not help you dodge DLT or run cracked panels.

Cost

DIY TCO is labor + phones + airtime. Hosted alternative: devices + platform volume + the same phones. Pricing.

Printable close

  • Hub read; this page is the gate.
  • STOP, consent, keys, isolation, counsel — evidenced.
  • No piracy step anywhere in the runbook.
