The growth resulted from business A2P SMS with new companies using the channel, but also existing businesses increasing their usage, due to the pandemic. In terms of spend, the growth has jumped to 51.6% in 2020 vs. 2019, compared to 16.1% the previous years*. There is still plenty of room for operators to leverage the growing market via their legitimate A2P SMS terminating routes to ensure greater and secure user experience.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT iBASIS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ibasis.com\/\">iBASIS<\/a> is the leading communications solutions provider enabling operators and digital players worldwide to perform and transform.
