Thanks to the numbers’ portability between operators, users can keep their phone numbers through the models and operators’ changes. Since November 2012, the procedure is mandatory and super simple: the transfer of numbers takes on average between 3 to 5 in Europe.

Moreover, users trust the messages they receive and do not find them aggressive or intrusive, in the limit of a reasonable numbers of sent sms, obviously!
It’s also important to know how to deal with STOP SMS. It is capital that when you do an sms campaign, your clients can unsubscribe if they do not want to receive your offers anymore. Thanks to premium SMS, the management of STOP SMS is automatic: your client sends a “STOP SMS” that does not cost you a thing, and our platform automatically puts the number in a “blacklist”: you cannot send messages to this person anymore, even by mistake! In some countries, reply does not work. Therefore, people will have access to a short link to unsubscribe.
We insisted several time on the expression “premium SMS”. A low-cost SMS indeed exists, less expensive but with a lot of negative points. Firstly, this low-cost sms is close to being illegal as it is not connected to operators but goes through a modem. Secondly, it does not respect the rules of bulk sms: it’s forbidden to send a promotional SMS between 8pm and 8am, but it’s not possible to handle the sending time of low-cost sms: your sms could arrive on the phone of your clients in the middle of the night!
