A USSD Gateway is a telecommunication network component that facilitates the exchange of Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSD) messages between mobile devices and applications or services.
USSD is a protocol used by GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) cellular telephones to communicate with the service provider’s computers. USSD Gateways are crucial for enabling a variety of interactive mobile services, and they are commonly used for applications such as mobile banking, balance inquiries, service activations, and other real-time interactions between users and services. They provide a quick and efficient means of communication, making them suitable for applications where real-time responsiveness is essential.
