Premium messaging refers to a service wherein Short Message Service (SMS) is sent using a unique short code. Its subscription requires an additional fee compared to the standard messaging rate, which is billed into the user's mobile credits. It gives access to various information and services, including routes, quizzes, music, translations, ringtones, phone numbers, search results, contest games, chat sessions, background images, and stock exchange prices, using speed dial numbers. Nowadays, these services operate on-demand and at a predetermined frequency, such as flight delays and sports results.
A significant increase in the number of mobile subscribers, along with the surging adoption of two-factor authentication, represents one of the key factors positively influencing the market. Moreover, enterprises are utilizing cloud application programming interface (API) with embedded contextual communications for applications, such as field service software and customer relationship management (CRM). This is aiding in registering users, enhancing customer interaction, and sending status updates on pending services globally. In addition, premium messaging can be used for charity and voting activities. For instance, subscribers can easily send an SMS message to donate funds and help people in need during a natural disaster. It also provides the benefits of weather alerts, transport updates, and reverse charge phone calls. Apart from this, the rising prevalence of medical conditions is expanding the use of premium messaging in the healthcare industry for automatic reminders about upcoming appointments and hassle-free communication. Furthermore, it is employed in the banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI) sector across the globe to enhance internal and external communications with staff, automate back-end IT processes, and improve customer relations and services.
