Shared numbers
Shared numbers are free, ready to use, and don’t need registration. Messages will be sent from our pool of local Sender IDs, so the number might be different each time.
Shared numbers are recommended for one-way messaging only.
Dedicated numbers
Send from a trusted, local number. Your messages will always come from a consistent Sender ID, which is perfect for establishing trust and recognition.
To purchase a dedicated number, please contact support.
Dedicated number registration usually takes 2-3 weeks.
Registration requirements
When purchasing a dedicated number, you will need to provide:
Business name, address, and website
Contact email address and phone number
Information on how you plan to use the number
Alpha tags
Alpha tags allow you to use your brand name as your Sender ID instead of a number.
To send using an alpha tag, your alpha tag must be registered with ClickSend, and with the local regulator: ComReg. Recipients cannot reply to messages sent using an alpha tag.
From 3 July 2025, alpha tags must be registered with ComReg.
Messages sent from an unregistered alpha tag will be sent as "Likely Scam".
From 3 October 2025, messages sent from an unregistered alpha tag will not be delivered.
