02Route notes
Recipients in Iran are on MCI, Irancell and Rightel. 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. We keep one route for the destination and swap it when an operator's delivery rate drops, without changing your rate mid-campaign.
Expect Unicode encoding for Iran: 70 characters (67 per part when concatenated) per part rather than 160. Long confirmations are still fine, they simply use more segments, and the cost preview reflects it.
Quiet hours for Iran are set to 07:00 to 21:00 local, editable per campaign. Import numbers in E.164 with the +98 prefix, like +98 948 892 224; local formats are normalised when the country is known.
Operators in Iran acknowledge acceptance but do not return handset receipts; sent is the final positive state and it is billed as usual.
03Sender ID
Operators here require alphanumeric senders to be registered before they deliver them. While the registration is pending, messages go out from a shared numeric sender; once approved, your name is used. Support handles the file with you.
