Hi Raja,

Unfortunately, Textbelt doesn't provide a voice message option. If you're looking to place voice calls on a telephone network, I'd recommend Twilio.

Hi,

Thanks a lot. Is it possible to send a text message to +5 million people using text message ?

Can you please suggest me how to do with Twillo ?

No, you shouldn't use this to text 5 million people. Textbelt.com will limit you after 75 texts per day. If you self-hosted Textbelt, you'd probably be blocked by providers for spam.

If you'd like to learn more about Twilio, their developer documentation is probably a good place to start. But sending 5M texts on Twilio will cost you about $40,000 in the US and even more abroad.
