SMS codes i.e. codes starts with 5
and generally have length between 5 to 7 digits are
termed as Short codes as they are smaller in length from
a regular mobile number and easy to remember.
Since they are very few in the market generally Telecom
VAS providers like ZNI Wireless get them activated with
different mobile operators and provide value added
services to the end users. Since they are very few and
only used by VAS companies operators charge premium
rates to deliver SMS on them i.e. around Rs 1 or Rs 3 or
Rs 6 depending upon the premiums sms number and the
operator from which you are sending SMS.
Premium SMS numbers are best suited for SMS Voting,
Polling, fetching information from the database etc.
On premium numbers you generally get a revenue share for
each incoming SMS and this revenue share depends upon
your monthly incoming SMS volume. Mostly the revenue
share price lies between 2 paise to 20 paise.
