Shared-pool Number
Shared-pool numbers are random, non-dedicated numbers. These may be configured to send your message during your trial period, or on paid accounts as a fallback number in the case your number is not configured for the destination country to which you are sending your message.
For Trial Accounts
If you are located outside the US, Canada, or UK, messages sent while on a Sakari Trial account will be from one of the Sakari shared-pool of phone numbers.
Dedicated Short Code
Short codes are dedicated 5 or 6 digit numbers used for sending and receiving SMS and MMS messages, primarily for business purposes like marketing, notifications, and two-factor authentication. They are pre-approved by carriers and offer higher delivery rates than long codes (10-digit numbers).
Sakari currently supports short code configuration for US traffic only.
