Short code
Short codes - also known as short numbers or premium sms numbers - are designed to be shorter to read out and easier to remember than normal cellphone numbers. They are widely used for value-added services such as competition lines, television voting and charity donations. Messages sent to short code numbers are generally billed at a higher rate than a standard SMS.
