}Frequently Asked Questions
Apple does not offer a public iMessage API. However, Blooio provides a fully-featured REST API that lets you send and receive iMessages programmatically. You get webhooks for real-time events, delivery tracking, read receipts, and support for attachments — all through standard HTTP requests.
With Blooio's API, you make a simple POST request to send an iMessage. Pass the recipient's phone number and your message text, and Blooio handles delivery through real Apple infrastructure. You can send from cURL, Node.js, Python, Go, Java, or any language that supports HTTP.
Blooio starts at $39/month for a dedicated iMessage-enabled number with unlimited messages. There are no per-message fees, no segment charges, and no hidden costs. A free trial is available with no credit card required.
Yes. Blooio is purpose-built for business iMessage communication. Use it for sales outreach, appointment reminders, customer support, and AI agent workflows. Unlike Apple's Messages for Business (which requires MSP enrollment and complex setup), Blooio lets you start sending in minutes via API or no-code integrations.
Blooio automatically checks each contact's capabilities before sending. If iMessage isn't available, you can fall back to RCS (for Android) or SMS via integrated Twilio support — all through the same API endpoint.
Yes. Blooio provides real-time webhooks for message delivery, read receipts, reactions, and incoming messages. You can filter events by type, rotate signing secrets, and replay failed deliveries from the webhook logs.
