Here? You have to register to read the content but I think it looks ok.
that's another sms/text message service.. its not the same..

we need a sms to $$ aka micropayments where we set up a code# and you text it to the service's number/address and it makes your donation (adds to your mobile bill or w/e) something like www.surfpin.com

hmmm..
Still not powerful enough - we need a solution that integrates with vB OR one that can generate an email notice when someone donates through sms/phone.. unless, of course, you guys want to donate and not get the perks that go with it :P

edit: ok we set up a beta test sms/txt donation thingy.. can't say if its gonna work, but it's here (http://www.pokecommunity.com/misc.php?do=page&template=supporters) on the advanced supporters info page.. currently supported countries include: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russian Federation, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom. USA is still pending due to the backend provider looking for a better deal.

test and comments on it.. (don't forget to use your PC username in the name or comments field)

Steve, I will test it tomorrow after I got some money on my mobile ;)

I hope it will work, otherwhise 4,99€ are gone just so. BTW when does it ask me for any name? If I click SMS, it just says I shall send ZAY 0000 (the 0000 is just an example of the 4digit number I shall send) to the phone number given. Do I get a message back where I have to send a message again or what?

no idea
when setting this up, it had a name and comments radio button.. I have no real way of testing it.. (its currently not active in the USA) nor have any REAL idea what all it asks the mobile user for. That's why I said (asked) you all test it and comment on it.. run through the process and see what it presents you.

Ahh well I see so it's currently very risky to use it without knowing exactly what happens. I will google around and look for an explanation on what comes after I've sent the message.
Because I don't wanna waste my money, I wanna donate it, but I don't want to throw it away^^

I'm pretty sure you can add messages to text messages so I'm gonna give it a try in the hope to be PC's first mobile donator xD

EDIT - Well I sent my text off with my username included and it came back saying my text was succesful. So there should be a text with my username in it (:
I can't wait to be in tier 1 :D

It didn't include anything 'extra' my notice just said:
You have received a payment through a payalogue for which you've enabled reporting by email.
The most important details about this payment are as follows:

payalogue: PC Tier 1 Donation (sms)
payment id: 2722xxxx
status: paid
amount: £ 5,00
created at: 01 Jun 2009 07:29
paid at: 01 Jun 2009 07:31
so, yeah.. its still beta for us, so we still gotta work out the kinks.. so if you use the sms to donate, try to remember what time it was.. then PM me with it.

Hey i tried to donate when it said it was available to Ireland but when i tried to choose my country Ireland wasnt there?
Any help?
Are you in Northern Ireland or the Republic of Ireland? Northern is a part of the United Kingdom, but I have to concur in saying that the Republic isn't listed.

Try the Uk, that'll probably work as Ireland is considered part of the Uk.
Wrong. UK = United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Great Britain = England, Scotland and Wales. "Ireland" refers to the Republic of Ireland, which is not a part of the United Kingdom.

In any case, Ireland's sms services do not support our donation amounts (they have a max of 1 euro, we charge so that its approx 4)
