SMS short code & keyword

Using the Zedge PRO dedicated short code (232323) you can make your own unique SMS keywords which fans can use to get your content to their phones. A SMS keyword is typically promoted like this: Text "yourvegas" to 232323 toget a free ringtone from Your VegasAn SMS Keyword and short code is very easy to spell out, which makes it perfect for "offline" events such as concerts, industry meetings or posters. The SMS keyword is generated from your artist name, but you can change it to whatever you want at any time.* This feature is available to US users only

Short code:

Short codes, also known as short numbers, are special telephone numbers, significantly shorter than full telephone numbers, which can also be used to address SMS and MMS messages from mobile phones or fixed phones.

They are designed to be shorter to read out and easier to remember than normal telephone numbers

Short codes are widely used for value-added services such as television voting, ordering ringtones, charity

Creating mobile stuff

Creating and sharing stuff like wallpapers, ringtones and videos for mobile phones is tricky if you were to do it without proper tools. Mobile phones come in many shapes and sizes - which complicate things a bit. However, with Zedge you have tools to make quality stuff for mobile without asking too much from you. Everyone with basic computer and internet skills should be able to use the tools. There are 2 things that make "mobilizing" easy with Zedge:

1. When you upload image, audio or video on Zedge, our tools automatically adapts the media to fit on nearly every phone that exist in the world today.

2. When someone requests your stuff on Zedge, we detect which phone they have. That enables us to send them content that will fit perfectly on his/her phone.

Web widgets

A widget is a digital "container" that allows you to take your mobile stuff off Zedge and offer it to fans on your own website or social networking site (MySpace, Facebook, blogs). Zedge widgets are easy to create and install on your site. Once you've done it you will be able to showcase the content you wish to highlight and provide clear instructions on how to get it.

Web widgets

A web widget is a portable chunk of code that can be installed and executed within any separate HTML-based web page by an end user without requiring additional compilation.
