Rach Pte Ltd has its very own SMS gateway and is directly linked to all three telecommunication companies in Singapore via private networks and megapop connections. Our special relationship with the telcos has given us the capability of Short Code SMS. Instead of a 8-digit mobile phone number appearing as the sender's number, the receiver would see an easy-to-remember 5-digit number. Besides this, we are also able to make use of the TPOA facility- masking of originating address with a sender's name.
Example of a TPOA: a name will appear instead of a phone number on the sender's section on your mobile phone.
