Let\u2019s discuss the definition, key features, and difference between short and long codes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A short code is a telephone number usually consisting of five or six digits \u2013 unlike long codes, which typically contain ten digits. It\u2019s worth noting that the construction of short codes works differently depending on the country. Some countries use only four digits, while others always start with the same numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These numbers are not limited in how they send messages, meaning they can use both MMS and SMS communication. You can already see how these numbers could be useful if you want customers to memorize them easily for one-way or two-way communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Businesses that want to use short codes must apply for them and have a choice of two types:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Random short codes: <\/strong>As the name states, these are entirely random numbers. You do not have control over what number you get, but on the plus side, these codes are significantly cheaper to procure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Vanity short codes: <\/strong>If your business prefers a specific short code\u2013perhaps a number significant to your brand\u2013you can apply for a vanity short code. You will get your choice, but it\u2019s worth noting they are much more expensive than random short codes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many industries use short codes, from TV shows to marketing teams, often as a security measure, such as two-way authentication or for its mass-messaging functionality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"key-features-of-short-code-texting\"><\/span>Key features of short code texting<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Short numbers\u2013used for one-way or two-way MMS or SMS communication\u2013usually consist of five or six digits.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The codes and their structure depend on the countries of use.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In certain countries, short codes share a common set of starting or ending numbers. In the United States, short codes never commence with the digit 1.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"differences-between-short-code-and-long-codes\"><\/span>Differences between short code and long codes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the obvious difference between short and long codes is the length, there are other differences worth noting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Short codes: &nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Can\u2019t receive faxes or calls<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are only used for commercial purposes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Can send more messages per second (500+ with no carrier filtering) compared to toll-free numbers (around 50 with carrier filtering) and long code numbers (around 10 with carrier filtering)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are the most expensive numbers, ranging from $500 to $1000 per month<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Have longer approval processes that can take up to four weeks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do not have carrier filtering, so you will not be flagged as spam<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"benefits-of-using-short-codes-in-your-messaging-strategy\"><\/span>Benefits of using short codes in your messaging strategy<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They are a logical choice for companies that must message customers often. A high volume of texts means you risk bottlenecking your services without the correct tools, frustrating customers. Let\u2019s review the top three reasons to use short codes, and examples of where these advantages would be applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"faster-delivery-rates\"><\/span>Faster delivery rates<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Short code texting has a significantly higher delivery speed than long code. One of the main reasons is that short codes don\u2019t have carrier filtering. Sending thousands of messages per minute without this method means slower delivery times and an increased risk that your messages will not reach the intended target.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Scenarios where faster delivery rates are crucial:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Emergency notifications<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Login notifications<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Two-factor authentication<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Local area emergency warnings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Delivery pickup notifications<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"improved-professional-image-and-better-brand-recognition\"><\/span>Improved professional image and better brand recognition<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the often-overlooked benefits of short code use is that it increases your brand\u2019s reputation and recognition. Although you pay more for the service per month, the approval process to secure such a number means any party aiming to use it for nefarious purposes will likely be rejected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Scenarios where better brand recognition matters:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sending messages with attached links<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Account issue alerts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Notifications regarding new product offerings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Announcements of promotions or sales<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reminder notifications for customer appointments<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"supports-mass-texting\"><\/span>Supports mass texting<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ability to support mass texting is important to many industries. Whether you operate as an online-only store or a brick-and-mortar shop that only sends out messages for delivery notifications, bulk texting is crucial. Without the ability to send volume communications, you risk bottlenecks and information not reaching your customers in time or at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Scenarios where mass texting support is necessary:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>When a business requires rapid mass messaging<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sending a notification to thousands of recipients simultaneously<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A substantial user base actively engaged with your message platform<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"the-role-of-short-code-texting-in-business\"><\/span>The role of short code texting in business<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Short messages have become a widely used service worldwide, with various uses in many industries. The role of the short code depends on the business but largely revolves around the ability to send information at high volume, high speed, and without carrier filtering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on the business requirements, short codes can also help with the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"marketing-campaigns\"><\/span>Marketing campaigns<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the more popular uses is to promote marketing campaigns. This texting format works well for marketing because it can send more than 500 messages per second without carrier filtering, which often marks messages as spam if they contain specific keywords.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, you can send calls to action, links, and campaign promotions without the risk of being marked as spam. This process helps ensure your messages reach your audience unhindered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"customer-support\"><\/span>Customer support<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Customer support benefits massively from short code texting. Clients can easily memorize the number to get quick assistance. Examples of customer support include various industries, from internet service providers to tech assistance from computer shops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"two-factor-authentication\"><\/span>Two-factor authentication<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This security measure is popular as an extra layer of protection for millions of individuals. Many apps integrate two-factor authentication so nobody can access an account without a code. These codes usually have a short lifespan, making them impossible to falsify.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Short code texts allow your business to send two-way authentication codes for millions of users without hindering your other outgoing messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"alerts\"><\/span>Alerts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many types of alerts utilize the message speed and limits of short code texting. This system uses everything from account login alerts to appointment reminders and booking confirmations to delivery notifications. Long-code texting would hamper how many messages you can send per minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A lower message-per-second limit can lead to more bottlenecks and customer frustration, particularly in time-sensitive scenarios where promptly receiving a message is crucial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"key-features-to-expect-from-telesign\"><\/span>Key features to expect from Telesign<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Telesign offers a range of beneficial features for clients who want to use short code texting. Whether your business requires it primarily for promotional messages or improved security, Telesign has a feature for you. Let\u2019s discover some notable features you can expect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>High quality, direct-to-carrier routes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Telesign\u2019s routes allow you to connect directly to an extensive range of carriers worldwide. You can optimize them for speed, reliability, and high SMS deliverability. High deliverability refers to measures that ensure your texts reach your intended customers without filtering problems or being falsely marked as spam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Phone number cleansing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our phone number cleansing will format numbers correctly for accurate message delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Compliance support<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We provide free regulatory assistance that can help mitigate Telephone Consumer Protection Act risks. Our regulatory support also adheres to worldwide content compliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Opt-out management<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Customers should always be able to opt out of messages they no longer want to receive. We simplify setting up Telesign SenderIDs for automated management of SMS opt-out requests. It\u2019s less work for you and more convenient for your customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Inbound SMS for interactive two-way communications<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our systems make it simple to send and receive global text messages. You can use these messages to listen, engage, and support customers. All industries need customer support, and making yours more accessible and easier to use means customers will likely prefer your brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Long message support<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you send messages over 160 characters, we can separate them into different messages based on device type and other operator requirements. This feature then sends it to the user\u2019s handset with instructions to reassemble the text in the correct order as one SMS through a provided link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Smart message splitting<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our smart message splitting means that our systems keep integral parts of a message, such as URLs or email addresses, together. This feature means your clients will never receive broken texts that are hard to understand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>URL shortener and activity tracking<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We offer a free service that shortens URLs into fewer characters where necessary. This shortening service makes sending links within the limits much simpler. Whether for sending calls-to-action or for more in-depth customer engagement metric tracking, our URL shortener is the way to do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Reliable global coverage<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Telesign, we can help you reach customers in over 200 countries and territories in 87 languages. Regardless of your company type, we are an excellent choice for local or global interactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Waterfall failover system<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There\u2019s little point in sending thousands of messages if there is an elevated risk of not reaching your clients\u2019 phones. We apply automatic fallback via dynamic routing to a secondary provider in the event of delivery failure over the first provider. This process means a much more reliable delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SMS campaign management<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With our tools, you can build and distribute targeted SMS campaigns easily. We use a dynamic dashboard with messaging templates and detailed reporting statistics on delivery status. These tools help your SMS campaigns have much better feedback for further optimization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"optimize-short-code-texting-with-telesign\"><\/span>Optimize short code texting with Telesign<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While modern person-to-person communication relies heavily on third-party communication services, SMS tools have become integral to so many businesses.
