02Route notes

Colombia: operators, encoding, timing.

Operators

  • Claro
  • Movistar
  • Tigo
  • WOM

The route reaches subscribers of Claro, Movistar, Tigo and WOM. None of them deliver alphanumeric senders: the platform assigns a local numeric sender automatically, and recipients can reply if you rent a dedicated number. Each operator is monitored separately; when one degrades it shows on the status page under Routes: Latin America.

Encoding and length

Latin text is sent in GSM-7, 160 characters (153 per part when concatenated) per segment. Add an emoji or a non-Latin character and the whole message switches to Unicode at 70 characters (67 per part when concatenated). The composer shows the count before you send.

Timing and format

Marketing campaigns are held outside 08:00 to 21:00 local time by default. Transactional messages such as codes and receipts bypass the window. Numbers are dialled with +57, for example +57 565 274 728.

Delivery receipts

Colombia gives full handset receipts, which makes list hygiene easy: unknown numbers are flagged at the first send.

03Sender ID

How your sender appears in Colombia.

Alphanumeric senders are not delivered by the local operators. Messages leave from a numeric sender in the destination, assigned automatically and free of charge; rent a dedicated number with inbound if you want recipients to reply.

06Questions, answered

Colombia: the practical questions.

Are there quiet hours for Colombia?

Yes: marketing traffic is held outside 08:00 to 21:00 local time by default. Transactional messages can bypass the window, and the default is editable per campaign.

Which encoding applies?

GSM-7 covers everyday Colombia traffic: 160 characters (153 per part when concatenated) per part. Watch for smart quotes and emoji, which force Unicode and halve the segment length.

Which carriers are on the route?

Claro, Movistar, Tigo and WOM, with delivery rate and receipt behaviour measured for each.

Is delivery confirmed?

Delivery receipts are available on this route: every message ends as delivered, failed or expired, with the carrier code on failures.

How much do 10,000 SMS to Colombia cost?

$69.00 at $0.0069 per segment, the same unit price as for one message or one million. At the lower price published by the crypto-paid gateways we track, the same send would cost about $150.00.

How will recipients in Colombia see the sender?

Alphanumeric senders are not delivered by the local operators. Messages leave from a numeric sender in the destination, assigned automatically and free of charge; rent a dedicated number with inbound if you want recipients to reply.
