Infobip Expands US Operations With CTIA Membership and Short Code Offering

NEW YORK, July 10, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

Infobip, global communications platform for businesses, has officially joined North America's wireless communications association CTIA as part of its US expansion. The association's members include wireless carriers, device manufacturers, suppliers, OTTs and content companies.

Enterprises, financial institutions, and organizations can, through Infobip's OMNI solution, utilize a multitude of communications channels, such as Voice, E-mail, chat app messages, SMS, RCS and in-app push messages on a single platform.

In joining the CTIA membership, Infobip is also listed as a short code partner where enterprises can, through its 10-digit number system, request a dedicated, memorable number helping to build additional brand recognition. Short codes serve as a customer appreciation and marketing tool where a business can send large numbers of messages at a consistent rate with much higher throughput than long numbers, especially crucial for time-sensitive campaigns or critical alerts.

"We truly recognize the strength, presence, and authority CTIA offers to Infobip in the US. It is a crucial step in engaging with the wireless industry in North America, and we believe that Infobip's international strength and global experience will also bring a wealth of knowledge to CTIA and the industry," said Yuri Fiaschi, Head of Americas at Infobip.

Infobip brings mobile enterprise communications to a global arena with its 57 offices around the world, and 800+ Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) partnerships. The company holds offices in San Francisco, New York and in Vancouver, Canada.

"Infobip is trusted by businesses worldwide in the financial, E-commerce and technology sectors, and the ambition is to bring our experience and knowledge to the ever-changing telecom trends, contributing to the development and standards in the US wireless industry," said Anja Obradovic, Head of Carrier Relations and Partnerships at Infobip North America.
