FAQs
What is long code and short code Salesforce?
A long code is a standard phone number (typically 10 digits long) that can be used to send and receive SMS text messages. Long codes are cheaper than short codes, and you can send one message per second. They are also usually used for one-on-one business messaging between businesses and customers.
A shortcode is a shorter numerical or alphanumeric code (usually 5-6 digits) that is used to send and receive bulk short code text messages, mainly for marketing and promotional purposes. Salesforce Short codes are best for high-volume messaging, as you can send 200 messages per second. These are often easier to remember than long phone numbers. So, if you’re looking for a reliable SMS short code service provider, look no further than 360 SMS.
How does a short code work?
The business or organization leases a shortcode from a mobile network operator or SMS aggregator to use short code texting service. Leasing a Salesforce SMS shortcode needs an approval process, which is a bit time-consuming.
The business then creates a marketing or customer service campaign and advertises the shortcode to its customers, along with instructions on how to opt-in to the campaign.
Customers who want to opt-in to the campaign send a text message to the shortcode.
The shortcode receives the text message and forwards it to a messaging gateway, which is responsible for processing and routing the message to the business or organization's designated endpoint.
The business receives the message and can take appropriate action, such as sending an automated response or adding the customer to a mailing list.
The customer continues to receive messages related to marketing and promotions from the business or organization until they opt out by sending a text message to the shortcode.
Why do we use the shortcode?
Salesforce SMS Short code messaging is perfect for high-volume A2P messaging as you can send 200 messages per second. With the right Salesforce short code texting app, you can easily scale communications. Salesforce Shortcodes are easy to remember due to a limited number of digits and help you improve brand recall as people can associate them with your brand within minutes. As all SMS templates are pre-approved by carriers, messages do not get marked as spam which helps to improve SMS deliverability.
