Direct Delivery details

Monnit offers Direct Delivery SMS messages which are SMS messages sent using an actual mobile number. Since there is no conversion from email as there is with External Delivery, you do not need to select your carrier. A mobile device with any carrier that is in the list of supported countries and supports SMS messaging can receive Direct Delivery SMS notifications. Since this type of SMS uses a mobile number to send the messages, there is a cost associated with using this service. Notification Credits must be applied to the account and will be charged according to the country of the mobile number. A list of supported countries and Notification Credit cost can be found at the relevant article.

Currently, the phone number from which Direct Delivery SMS messages are sent is US (385) 245-2815.
