Frequently asked questions

Will I get better SMS delivery rates by sending from long codes or a short code?

We talk about the pros and cons of different number types in a recent blog post. In the US, application-to-person (A2P) texting requires the use of 10DLC numbers, while short codes have different benefits.

Can I text visitors who request information a URL they can click to see a page full of information?

Nothing could be easier. You can set up an SMS autoresponder that includes a custom message and a URL, or set up an MMS autoresponder with similar information plus an image or document.

Are there any steps I can take to make outgoing SMS messages more likely to be delivered?

High-quality, well-formatted content is more likely to be opened and less likely to be mistaken as spam by consumers, operators, and carriers. Follow these guidelines.

Can I use Plivo to accept SMS alerts from Internet of Things (IoT) devices?

You can receive text messages from devices or people without writing a single line of code by using our PHLO visual design tool, or code an application in any of seven languages with the help of a Plivo SDK.
