SMS enabled numbers:

Long virtual numbers are designed to send and receive inbound SMS from your local market. E.g. A US long virtual number will be able to receive incoming SMS from a US mobile phone.

SMS + Voice enabled numbers:

Dual enabled numbers can send and receive SMS and make and receive phone calls.

Voice enabled numbers:

Voice numbers can make and receive phone calls and each country has different service features.

Toll-Free numbers:

Toll-free numbers are not accessible from international destinations or payphones.

Local and International Reach:

We can't guarantee that the inbound number can be reached from non-local phone numbers or from other SMS APIs. However, some do successfully receive inbound messages from abroad.

Where international says 'Probably', this means we are told the numbers have international reach, but the number provider has not confirmed the networks they have inbound reach from, hence we promote on a best efforts basis.
