Shortcode SMS Messaging
Earn revenue from your messaging campaigns.


Clickatell offers shortcode messaging in South Africa, Namibia, USA and the United Kingdom. Shortcode messaging is where a mobile recipient is charged at a standard or premium rate (depending on the country) for either receiving or sending a message; usually in return for content or a service e.g. competitions, news and weather content or for mobile marketing purposes, etc.

Prolonged periods of volumes below the indicated thresholds or no activity may result in re-allocation of your shortcode (if owned by Clickatell) or keyword.

A minimum monthly volume of 5000 messages per shortcode or 2500 messages per keyword (in the case of a shared shortcode) will be required before Clickatell will be obligated to pass on premium SMS revenue to you. If less than the above number of messages are received the revenue for that month will be forfeit to Clickatell. Prolonged periods of volumes below the indicated thresholds or no activity may result in re-allocation of your shortcode (if owned by Clickatell) or keyword. Revenues will be paid to you around 90 days or earlier depending on when the operator pays Clickatell.

At Clickatell we pay you the full revenue share, based on the minimum monthly volume required as mentioned above.

Shortcode messaging requirements:
  • Sign up for a Clickatell API account.
  • Then apply for a shortcode from within your account. A shortcode (so named because it is shorter than a normal mobile phone number) is the number customers will reply to allowing you to receive messages.
How shortcode messaging can help you:
  • Shortcode SMS is the perfect tool for interactive campaigns such as competitions.
  • At Clickatell we pay you the full revenue share, based on the minimum monthly volume required as mentioned above.
  • Easy integration with Clickatell through use of our free APIs.
  • Reliability, backed up by a 24 x 7 support centre.
  • Simple account administration.

Shortcode messaging is currently available in South Africa, Namibia, USA and in the UK.
