Sender IDs provided to Customer in the context of this Service will be listed in the business information overview (“BIO”) or any similar document made available to Customer via the tyntec Platform or by e-mail.

Any usage of Sender IDs requires the prior approval of the relevant use case by tyntec. The use case submitted by Customer to tyntec must contain an adequate detail.

After the end of the initial three-month term, the agreement to provide the Service will automatically renew on a month-to-month basis unless terminated by either Customer or tyntec by giving thirty (30) days’ written notice in advance.

If sender IDs include short codes, Customer is only allowed to send messages to end-users which are subscribers to the networks operating in the country where the short code is registered.

Customer will terminate all messaging traffic using Sender IDs provided in the context of this Service exclusively via the tyntec platform.

Mobile Chat API
The charging mechanism might differ from one messaging app to another. Please refer to the price overview on the website for details.

With respect to messages sent to Viber, Customer will be charged for all messages delivered to Viber users.

For messages sent to WhatsApp, Customer will be charged WhatsApp Fees for all Templated Messages that are sent outside of the Customer Care Window and delivered to WhatsApp users (https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/pricing).

Mobile Chat API provides an optional SMS fallback mechanism which Customer may or may not decide to use. The enabling / disabling procedures are described in the API documentation at https://docs.tyntec.com/.

When the SMS fallback is used the message is first submitted to one or more messaging apps, depending on which messaging apps are available for the respective destination country. If the message cannot be delivered to any of these messaging apps, for example because the recipient is not a registered user on any of the respective apps, then the message is sent and charged as an SMS.
