02Route notes
The route reaches subscribers of Orange, Moov Africa and Telecel. All of them deliver alphanumeric senders as typed, so your brand name appears on the handset without registration. Each operator is monitored separately; when one degrades it shows on the status page under Routes: Middle East & Africa.
The GSM-7 alphabet fits Burkina Faso traffic in segments of 160 characters (153 per part when concatenated). A transactional message with a code and a link usually fits in one segment.
Quiet hours for Burkina Faso are set to 08:00 to 20:00 local, editable per campaign. Import numbers in E.164 with the +226 prefix, like +226 494 316 528; local formats are normalised when the country is known.
Operators in Burkina Faso return handset delivery receipts, so delivered means the phone received the message, usually within seconds.
03Sender ID
Alphanumeric senders of 3 to 11 characters, A-Z, 0-9, space are delivered as typed. No registration is needed; the platform still falls back to a numeric sender if a carrier rejects the name.
