Transactional SMS can contain order status, delivery notifications, OTP, Transaction status, welcome SMS and many others. Online E-Commerce websites, portals, Banks, Malls, Showrooms, industries, service providers and many more businesses are using this facility. These SMS get delivered on DND and NON-DND numbers. It has a 6 Alphalet SENDER ID and can only be issued to clients who have registered with the sender company.

Sender id's example with information:

The letters VK, AM, JD, and AD stand for VODAFONE Karnataka, Airtel Maharashtra, JIO Delhi, AIRTEL DELHI respectively. Following these characters are six alphabets that reveal the name of the business sending the bulk promotional SMSes.

Characters limit in transactional SMS:

The limit of single (one) Transactional English text SMS is up to 160 characters (including space and special characters), whereas in Unicode (any other language) SMS it is limited to 70 characters only. Every multipart English text SMS is restricted to 153 characters instead of 160 due to the need for user data headers (UDHs) technology. Mobile phones use UDH technology to allow them to link lengthy SMS jointly so that they appear as a single SMS in the recipient’s phone inbox. Below mentioned chart will explain you better:

English text SMS chart (for characters limit):

Number of SMS Total Characters allowed
1 160
2 153 X 2 = 306
3 153 X 3 = 459
4 153 X 4 = 612
5 153 X 5 = 765
6 153 x 6 = 918
7 (153X6) + (1X82) = 1000

Unicode (any other language) SMS chart:

Number of SMS Total Characters allowed
1 70
2 67 X 2 = 134
3 67 X 3 = 201
4 67 X 4 = 268
5 67 X 5 = 335
6 67 X 6 = 402
7 67 X 7 = 469
8 (67 X 7) + (1 X 31) = 500

So the maximum limit in Transactional English SMS is 1000 characters and 500 characters limit in unicode SMS.
