Short Codes are five or six digit numbers to which text messages can be sent to and received from a cell phone. Wireless subscribers can send text messages to Short Codes to access, interact, or subscribe to mobile content. Short Codes can be provisioned with wireless carriers to provide access to 250 million plus wireless subscribers in the United States.
A Short Code can be promoted to drive wireless subscribers to mobile content and text messaging applications by allowing them to send text messages with keywords to a short code. Short codes let users opt-in and interact with SMS applications.
For example: Text 'NEWS' to 53203 for news alerts!
