What is a dedicated short code

Betwext currently offers dedicated short codes and requires applying to the carriers (not all who apply will be awarded a short code). Costs for a dedicated short code start from $1500 per month (require you to pay for the year upfront) plus platform and set up fees.


For dedicated short codes please contact us at support@betwext.com


Can an end user opt-out of a short code or long code number?  Yes, by replying STOP.  They can get back on a platform again by retyping the desired keyword or with long code replying with START.   You are obligated to include STOP language in the body of the messages that are part of the initial sign-up flow and it is also recommend ongoing. You also agree to check all of your incoming messages prior to every send and you agree to manually unsubscribe those users who are not auto-unsubscribed or who request to be unsubscribed.  You must look to these responses for sentiment from your end users such as remove me, stop!!!, end, no more texting, take me off your list etc. and take the appropriate action to manually unsubscribe them using the unsubscribe tool in your platform.
