Mobile Identity Solutions: Know Benefits & How it Works

Although SMS began 27 years ago and cellular calls about 45 years ago, both lack branding features that give an identity to a brand.

SMS is the most reliable source of communications even today. SMS displays only plain text & so does the call logs. A brand can get lost in a never-ending list of calls and messages. How do you ensure your brand stands out?

Mobile identity is the solution as it overcomes all these limitations. It adds branding features to regular calls & SMS by displaying relevant caller/sender info, such as brand name, URL and logo of the brand.
Although only transactional SMS can be sent via mobile identity, it is an add on to traditional transactional SMS as it transforms the native SMS and dialer communication apps into better communication tools at the corporate and end-user levels. It is an in-built service with no additional involvement or resources required.

How does Mobile Identity Solution work

• Brands send the mobile number and SMS content to the CPaaS provider
• The CPaaS solution provider filters the content and provides the content to end-user
• The end-user receives the SMS in the native SMS app similar to the traditional one
• The brand gets the delivery status in time
• The CPaaS solution provider passes the status to the brand
• The end-user reads or replies to the SMS
