Concatenated SMS

Generally a long SMS is split into chunks of 153 characters while in Unicode content messages are up to 67 characters where extra 8 chars are needed to hold 'segmentation information' that is sent along with the body of the sms, so that the handset knows how to put all the parts back together again into a single long message.

Ginota takes care of the concatenated SMS naturally. However, do take note on the maximum message length per number of SMS for a plain message:

Number of SMSMaximum Message Length
1 160
2 306 (153*2)
3 459 (153*3)

Ginota charges user by message submission. Therefore, concatenated SMS is billed by the number of individual SMS messages parts. Based on the table above, sending a SMS of 459 characters will result in charges of 3 SMS. You may find the number of SMS from Ginota API response, parts:
