Advanced MT Coverage
International SMS Coverage.

Clickatell currently covers 819 networks in 220+ countries for outbound messages and almost 100 countries for inbound messages (two-way SMS). The table below depicts all the international SMS networks that Clickatell currently covers.

The credit cost column indicates the number of credits required to send or receive a plain text message not exceeding 160 characters. All inbound messages are charged at 1/3 of a credit, but the cost of outbound messages differs according to the country and the network. If an X appears in the column for inbound messaging then that network does not support two-way SMS.

This table below is a guide only as it lists the lowest cost per text SMS, but in some cases Unicode, 8-bit, Sender ID and other features are charged differently. For more detail per country and network, please click on the Country's name.

A small switching fee (currently 1/3 of a credit) is charged for all inbound (MO) messages that you receive. Click here to view MO coverage.

If your network is not listed below, please use the contact form to tell us about this.

Definitions

UDH
For sending ringtones and logos,etc, you have to include the User Data Header (UDH). We provide pre-defined message types that allow you to send binary SMS data such as ringtones and logos to Nokia phones. However if you have an application that creates the UDH and DATA fields automatically you can set these parameters directly through the Clickatell API.

Concat
According to GSM standards, SMS messages may only be 160 characters in length. You can, however, split a longer message across multiple SMS messages. SMS concatenation is also used when sending logos and ringtones, meaning that your logo may cost more than one message credit to send to a recipient, depending on the length of the binary SMS that is created for the delivery of the message.

Unicode
In order to send foreign or non-standard characters such as Chinese, Arabic SMS etc, you need to send the message in Unicode. If you have an application that already sends Unicode (UCS_16), you can simply send the message through Clickatell's SMS Gateway with one of our API's. Sending SMS using Unicode has certain constraints, such as the message length that is shorter than with 7-bit (160 text) or 8-bit (binary, EMS, Logos etc). The character limitation for a Unicode message is 69. For more info on unicode, see www.unicode.org.

Binary
We provide pre-defined message types that allow you to send binary SMS data such as ringtones and logos to Nokia phones. However if you have an application that creates the UDH and DATA fields automatically you can set these parameters directly through the Clickatell API.

Alpha
The ability to set an alpha source address when submitting a message. Some destinations offer the ability to set a customised source address on an SMS message. If "alpha" is indicated then we have the ability to set a custom alpha source address for your message. Please note that this is operator dependent and is not a guaranteed feature.

Numeric
The ability to set a numeric source address when submitting a message. Some destinations offer the ability to set a customised source address on an SMS message. If "numeric" is indicated then we have the ability to set a custom numeric source address for your message. Please note that this is operator dependent and is not a guaranteed feature.
