Shortcodes are useful when you have information to sell. Once the incoming payment SMS is received, a reply SMS containing the information, or a weblink to the information, or an entry code to a website containing the information can be sent back to the customer. Premium Rated Shortcode services are provided on a dedicated shortcode or on a keyword basis where a single shortcode is shared by multiple services with their own keyword.
