Shortcodes

What is an SMS Shortcode?

Ever text in to the X-Factor or a radio station? You probably text to a 5 digit number like 57030 or 88990. These numbers are known as shortcodes, as opposed to long code like your mobile number for example. Shortcodes have been used in mobile marketing for years and are an excellent way to allow your customers to OPT-IN to your loyalty clubs.

By increasing your OPT-IN database, you will now get the benefits of between 10-32% response to all your promotions. Why? Because the people receiving your bulk text want to get them !!
