What’s the distinction between Dedicated and Shared Long Codes?

Dedicated Long Codes are exclusive 10-digit numbers assigned to one business, ensuring branded, consistent messaging (e.g., replies to 919876543210 go only to you). Shared Long Codes are pooled among multiple users, cheaper but less personalized, as replies are routed via keywords (e.g., “HELP” to 917039670396). SMSGatewayCenter offers both—Dedicated for premium service, Shared for budget-friendly options.
