Hi, this is very much depending on the operator and country. Here in germany for example for Vodafone you can set up that the MO SMS is initally free and the money is just "reservered". It can the be charged over a seperate xml-interface after the transaction is finished. But E-Plus (KPN Germany) charges the MO directly no matter if the transaction was successful. In swiss for example MO-Billing is completly forbidden, there you can only do MT-Billing. So best ask the operator if they offer a 2-phase-billing (also called online-billing or mobile-pay).
