Cafe Reference "message is received in the form of an SNS chat message (S503), but the message is not received to the occupants scheduled to have the remaining 983 future phones (S504).

Receiving a signal to recognize that a message is not received by the tenant who owns the future phone (S505) from the text message resale system to send a text message to the tenant who has 983 future phones with the agency carrier system Request (S506).

The agency's telecommunications system sends a text message to each of the 983 prospective tenants (S507), and the tenants will be tapping tomorrow with their future phones. Reference "text message is received (S508).

As another example, if you want to send a text message requesting the transfer of a verification number to each of 'Lee Soon-ja' and 'Kim Chul-soo' who want to join Lotte.com as a member, first, the Lotte.com operator Send the text message by sending the subscriber information of the company and the receiving number of the receiver's terminal, that is, Lee Soon-ja and Kim Chul-soo's future phone number and smart phone number, and the messages "Subscription authentication number: 12345a" and "Subscription authentication number: 12345b". Request (S501).

In the text message resale system that is requested to send a text message, the subscriber authentication for 'Lotte.com' is followed by Lee Soon-ja's future phone number, "Sign-up authentication number: 12345a", and Kim Chul-su's smart phone number. 12345b "is pushed into the SNS message collectively (S502).

If you push the SNS message from the text message resale system, Kim Cheol-su's smartphone receives the message "Subscription authentication number: 12345b" (S503), but Lee Soon-ja's future phone "Subscription authentication number: 12345a" message Is not received (S504).

Lee Soon-ja, who owns a future phone, received a signal to recognize that the message was not received (S505) from the text message resale system to the agency's communication system. Request to send a message (S506).

The agency communication company system transmits a text message to Lee Soon-ja's future phone (S507), and Lee Soon-ja receives a text message "subscription authentication number: 12345a" to her future phone (S508).

Thereafter, Lee Soon-ja and Kim Chul-soo, who received the subscription authentication number, can enter the respective authentication number in the corresponding column to continue the registration process.

As described above, according to the present invention, a transmission cost is low by sending a text message to a future phone user by using an existing agency communication system and transmitting a message through a dedicated intermediary server to a smart phone user by using a general Internet network. Therefore, it is possible to greatly reduce the communication cost when transmitting a large amount of data.

In the above-described specific example, when transmitting the SNS message, which is a free text service, to tenants who have 1016 smartphones among the tenants who are scheduled to move in 1999, the communication cost is reduced compared to the conventional text message transmission method using an institution communication system. (As of May 11, 1012, three mobile carriers (SK Telecom, KT, LG Uplus): 50.84%-See smart & play dated May 14, 2012).

In addition, in another example described above, the Lotte.com operator may transmit a message for authentication to each of a number of prospective members requesting membership at a lower cost through a text message resale system.
