Prohibited messages

All messages must adhere to the codes of conduct published by mobile network operators (AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon). If a message sender is observed sending any disallowed content, including sending unsolicited messages, phishing, or filter evasion, we will suspend your MESA account immediately.

All messages must comply with the opt-in requirements outlined in the CTIA guidelines. In short, businesses should send messages to customers only after receiving opt-in permission. Also, message senders should not use opt-in lists that have been rented, sold, or shared.

Technical Notes

  • The SMS tool only supports sending messages to the United States and Canada.

  • The message body has a maximum length of 160 characters (after variable replacements have been made). If your message is longer than 160 characters, the task will be marked as Fail and no message will be sent.

  • To avoid these obstacles, consider using the Twilio app, which has fees per message sent and requires additional configuration.
