Built around your message flow.

Illustrative example, not live traffic data.
01

Verification & OTP

Account access and verification codes have different timing requirements from a marketing send. Tell us about your expiry window, peak load and fallback flow.

02

Transactional SMS

Order updates, payment alerts and appointment reminders keep customers informed. Separate these messages from promotional traffic when defining your routes.

03

Routing & integration

Plan A2P SMS routing around your destinations, sender IDs and application requirements. Review SMPP connectivity, delivery receipts and test criteria with Volario before moving production traffic.

A2P SMS routing & integration

Destinations and traffic: share the countries and, where known, mobile operators you need to reach. Separate OTP, transactional and promotional traffic so availability and route conditions can be reviewed for each use case.

SMPP connection: tell us which messaging platform you use, your existing connection method and expected peak messages per second. Confirm the supported interface, connection settings and throughput for your proposed traffic with the team.

Sender ID: specify the brand name or number you want recipients to see. Sender formats and any registration requirements need to be checked for the requested destinations before launch.

Delivery reports: explain which delivery receipt (DLR) statuses, message identifiers and reporting format your application expects. Agree how results will be mapped to your system; a delivery receipt is not confirmation that someone read the message.

Testing: agree the destinations, authorised test numbers, message samples, sending volume and acceptance criteria in advance. Confirm test access, any charges and the review process before starting. Use the agreed results to decide when production traffic can begin.

Wholesale A2P SMS

For messaging platforms, aggregators and wholesale partners, an A2P proposal starts with the traffic you need to route. Share your destination mix, recurring monthly volumes and peak load, together with the message types your customers send.

Define your route priorities: OTP delivery windows, transactional notifications or promotional sends may call for different requirements. Review sender handling, delivery reporting, operational contacts and the process for route changes as part of the proposal.

Coverage, capacity, commercial commitments and support arrangements are confirmed for the agreed connection. A destination breakdown helps the team prepare a specific wholesale quote and a practical test scope.

What determines A2P SMS pricing?

Destinations and routes: include the countries, operators where known, and traffic type in your quote request. A single global rate would not describe the conditions for every destination.

Volume and capacity: share expected monthly volume, peak throughput and any delivery window. Include your sender ID needs and sample message length and character set so message segmentation and the billing unit can be clarified.

Commercial terms: ask the team to confirm the quoted routes, currency, billing basis, payment terms and any setup, registration or testing fees that apply. Compare proposals on the same scope, including how multipart messages and unsuccessful submissions are charged.

What to include in your enquiry

Prepare a destination breakdown, monthly volume, peak messages per second and your current connection method. These details help define a useful test and a destination-specific quote. Coverage, pricing and delivery requirements are agreed for the proposed traffic.

Questions before you connect

What is A2P SMS?

Application-to-person SMS is a message sent by an application to a person. Common uses include verification codes, order notifications and business alerts.

How does A2P SMS differ from P2P SMS?

A2P messages originate from an application or business system, such as a verification code or order update. P2P refers to messages exchanged between people. Volume alone does not determine the category; the traffic must match the applicable route and operator requirements.

How do I start an A2P SMS connection with Volario?

Send your destinations, message types, estimated monthly volume, peak throughput and current platform through the enquiry form. The team reviews availability and the proposed setup. Agree commercial terms, technical parameters and test criteria before arranging a production launch.

Can I discuss SMPP connectivity?

Yes. Include your platform, destinations, expected throughput and delivery receipt requirements in your enquiry so the team can review the connection.

Can I test A2P SMS routes before launch?

Discuss test availability and terms with the team first. Agree destinations, authorised recipients, message samples and the delivery results to review. Test access, limits and charges are confirmed for the proposed connection.

How is A2P SMS pricing determined?

A quote is based on the requested destinations, traffic profile, volumes and route requirements. Confirm the billing unit, message segmentation and any applicable fees in the proposal. Share these details with Volario for a destination-specific quote.
