02Route notes

What is specific to sending in Congo DR.

Operators

  • Vodacom
  • Airtel
  • Orange
  • Africell

Traffic to Congo DR terminates on Vodacom, Airtel, Orange and Africell. They deliver alphanumeric senders only after registration; until then your messages leave from a shared numeric sender, and support prepares the registration file with you. Delivery rates and receipt behaviour are measured per operator, and the report names the reason whenever one of them rejects a message.

Encoding and length

The GSM-7 alphabet fits Congo DR 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.

Timing and format

The default delivery window for Congo DR runs from 08:00 to 20:00, local time; schedule by local hour and the campaign opens when Congo DR does. International format uses +243: +243 418 787 745.

Delivery receipts

Operators in Congo DR return handset delivery receipts, so delivered means the phone received the message, usually within seconds.

03Sender ID

How your sender appears in Congo DR.

Registration comes first in this destination: an unregistered brand name is swapped for a shared numeric sender so the message still lands, and your registered name takes over once the operators approve it.
