What are Short Code SMSs?
Short codes are a shorter sequence of telephone numbers used to send and receive high-volume of messages in a shorter span of time. Sending more than 100 messages from a regular or long code can lead that number to get spammed. Whereas, short codes are pre-allowed for higher throughput rate.
They are usually of 5 or 6 digits telephone numbers (5 digits in India) and are associated by the automated service providers. The code can be extended by three characters representing your name or brand. Also, note that these are premium messages and levy more than just promotional ones for around 3 rupees per SMS.
Short codes are found to be shared by more than one company and are a subject of the agreement due to overlapping issues.
