What is a Sender ID?
Sender ID is the sender identifier that is displayed on the recipient's mobile device instead of the standard phone number. Instead of seeing the sender's phone number, your customer will see the unique identifier or brand name of your company that you have chosen. For example, instead of the usual sender number +123456789, your customer will see 'MyCompany'. This creates trust and helps your messages stand out from the rest.
Benefits of using Sender ID
- Branding and recognition: Using a Sender ID helps strengthen your brand recognition. Your customers will instantly recognize that the message was sent by your company, which increases trust and the likelihood of reading the message.
- Professional look: Sender ID adds a professional and elegant look to your SMS messages. Instead of regular phone numbers, which can look unattractive or suspicious, you can use your own brand name or identifier that will be easily recognizable and elicit a positive response from your customers.
- Improved deliverability: Sender ID helps increase the deliverability of SMS messages as they are often viewed as important and not spam. Many mobile operators and services provide a higher level of deliverability for messages sent via Sender ID.
