An alert that gets read right away.

Flash uses the SMS network to display the message as a pop-up. Your customer sees it immediately and decides whether to save it, which is why it works well for urgent alerts and sensitive data.

What is a Flash SMS?

A Flash SMS is a text message that appears instantly as a pop-up on the phone's screen, without opening any app and without being automatically saved to the inbox. It travels over the SMS network, so it works without mobile data or Wi-Fi. It's ideal for urgent alerts and one-time passcodes.

Who it's for

Banks and fintechs that alert customers to account activity, login attempts, or possible fraud; service companies that report outages or schedule changes; and any business that sends verification codes and would rather they not be stored on the phone.

Benefits

  • Instantly visible. It pops up on screen, even when the phone is locked.
  • No app or data needed. It works with the phone's built-in messaging and each carrier's network.
  • More privacy. It isn't saved to the inbox; your customer decides whether to keep it.
  • Delivery confirmation. A delivery report for every message sent.

Frequently asked questions about Flash SMS

How is a Flash SMS different from a regular SMS?

It's sent with a message class that the phone displays on screen immediately, instead of saving it to the inbox. Your customer reads it right then and decides whether to save it.

Does it work without an internet connection?

Yes. It uses each carrier's SMS network, so it arrives without mobile data or Wi-Fi. How it's displayed may vary depending on the phone model.

Is it useful for one-time passcodes?

Yes. The code is shown once and isn't automatically kept in the inbox, which reduces the risk of someone else reading it later.

How does integration work?

Your platform sends the alert via HTTP or SMPP API. Innovattia's API flags the message as Flash, prioritizes it, and picks the carrier route.

Do I get a delivery confirmation?

Yes. The delivery report for each message flows back to your system and is visible on the platform dashboard.
