Embedded Phone

definition

What is an embedded phone number?

In SMS marketing an embedded phone number is a phone number included within the body of a text message. This number is typically not the same number as the sending number.

We discourage embedding phone numbers in your SMS messages as it has a higher chance of getting flagged as a carrier violation.
