Message types

The following SMS message types are offered:

• Standard SMS
• Flash SMS

Standard SMS

Standard messages are made up of simple text and are attributed to your sender name. This means that no branding and very minimal personalization is applied, but you do not need to go through any additional verification or enablement processes to use standard SMS.

Flash SMS

Flash SMS (opens in a new tab) is a short message that appears directly on the mobile screen without being saved into the mobile's inbox. It is most commonly used to catch the recipients’ attention immediately with different alerts, such as emergency, weather, traffic, and so on.
