Tier 1
Tier 1 SMS aggregators maintain direct short-message peer-to-peer (SMPP—an industry protocol for exchanging SMS messages) connections and premium settlement agreements with at least four of the five major U.S. wireless carriers (AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, US Cellular, and Verizon). They support carrier-grade SMS and MMS capabilities and provide a high-level 24/7 service agreement. They publish content only where the rights to that content are clearly owned by the customer (e.g., they won't knowingly plagiarize or spam).
