Notes

Country: United States Virgin Islands (VI).

The US Virgin Islands has specific guidelines for sending SMS messages. Alphanumeric sender IDs are supported, as are numeric sender IDs. However, generic sender IDs such as INFO, SMS, NOTICE, etc. are not allowed.

In order to send marketing messages, prior consent is required from the recipients. It is important to note that person-to-person (P2P) traffic is prohibited. In addition, content related to politics, religion, unsolicited promotion or gambling is not allowed. In addition to these specifications, our Acceptable Use Policy applies.

We strive to keep the information updated and accurate, but please be aware that the rules for SMS broadcasts may change. For questions or further information, please feel free to contact our expert team.
