An HTTP callback a platform sends to your system in real time, commonly used to deliver DLRs or inbound message events as POST/GET/JSON/XML.

Why Webhook Matters

Without a webhook, your system would have to keep asking a platform "has anything changed?" (polling), which is slow and wasteful. A webhook flips that: the platform pushes the event to you the moment it happens.

How Webhook Works

You register a URL on your own server. Whenever a relevant event occurs, such as a delivery receipt or an inbound message, the platform sends an HTTP request to that URL carrying the event data, typically as JSON.

How SMPPCenter Uses This

If you integrate with SMPPCenter over the REST API rather than a direct SMPP bind, webhooks are how you receive DLRs and inbound replies, sent as POST, GET, JSON, or XML depending on how you configure the endpoint.
