Yes — over 5 million opt-in mobile numbers across the UAE, segmented by nationality, location, age, gender, income and interest. We never sell databases; they're used only to deliver your campaign. For SMS marketing the databases can be 50 – 70% qualified. This is because, when the database is collected and now, the user may switch jobs and the number belongs to someone else — in these cases we remove all dead mobile numbers to avoid sending SMS to them.
Sender ID is the 11-character branded name (usually your company name) that appears as the sender of your SMS. We get it approved by the UAE telecom operators in 3–5 working days — you'll need to submit your trade license and a short application form.

Always send SMS using your Sender ID — it gives people reason to open and read your message. Most important is the offer you are trying to send; try to give the best offer to which the user is likely to react. Have a separate phone number to track calls or website traffic so you can measure success. Database quality also plays an important role — sometimes wrong people may call you, but this is due to the database accuracy which is around 50 – 70%. Check out the best timing when your customers may react and send messages around that time.

Absolutely. SMS marketing remains highly effective for directly engaging customers on their mobile devices. With high open rates and immediate response capabilities, SMS messages are a powerful tool for driving customer action. SMS marketing also complements other channels such as email and social media, making it a valuable component of any comprehensive marketing strategy.
Yes, with conditions. SMS marketing must adhere to applicable laws and regulations, including obtaining explicit consent from recipients prior to sending promotional messages. In many jurisdictions, including Dubai, recipients must opt in to receive SMS marketing communications and must be provided with the option to opt out. Failure to comply may result in monetary fines and reputational damage.
SMS marketing achieves high engagement due to its direct nature. Messages prompt immediate actions such as purchases or sign-ups. Personalised SMS messages increase effectiveness by addressing recipients by name or targeting their interests. Use analytics to measure success and optimise campaigns over time.
SMS marketing delivers a high return on investment, especially for time-sensitive promotions or urgent notifications. It powerfully reaches customers who may not regularly check email or social media. Compared to traditional advertising, SMS marketing is often more affordable and measurable — particularly if your target audience is responsive to mobile communications.
You need subscriber consent before sending marketing communications. Adherence to legal and regulatory requirements is essential, including opt-out instructions. Submit your trade licence to obtain approval for your sender ID (up to one week). Compose succinct, transparent messages with a clear call to action, and use analytics to monitor and improve campaign performance.
Yes. SMS gives direct access to customers' mobile devices ensuring rapid message viewing. SMS messages typically enjoy superior open rates compared to emails.
