SMS Short Codes
Memorable 5 digit text numbers.
For bulk SMS that works.
Short Codes can be used for promotions, enquiries, surveys, mobile coupons and more. The memorable nature of an SMS Short Code makes it easy for customers and prospects to interact instantly.
Short Codes work well when you need to contact lots of people at the same time, so for bulk SMS, major marketing campaigns – or for emergency notifications – they’re invaluable.
Trusted by industry leaders to deliver world class mobile messaging solutions
Shared Short Code.
A shared Short Code allows more than one person to use the same number; however everyone has a unique “keyword”. This keyword is placed at the start of a text to direct texts to the correct account’s inbox. When a user responds they are charged only at their standard network rate.
Dedicated Short Code.
Using a dedicated Short Code means that you own that number and every message sent to it will go straight into your account, regardless of what the first word of the text message is. Owning your own Short Code is ideal for bulk SMS and high volume users.
FreeText Short Code.
Our ‘FreeText’ service allows respondents to text in for FREE for example to a marketing campaign. Using FreeText removes the send cost for respondents and helps to increase response rates.
