ClearSky Technologies and Thumb Cellular Partner to Enhance A2P Messaging with Short Code, Toll-Free, 10DLC, and MMS Services

ORLANDO, Fla., June 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- ClearSky Technologies is excited to announce a new strategic partnership with Thumb Cellular to manage and deliver the wireless carrier's full suite of application-to-person (A2P) messaging services, including Short Code, Toll Free, 10-digit long code (10DLC), and Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS). This collaboration represents a major step forward in Thumb Cellular's commitment to offering secure, compliant, and high-performance messaging services to its customers.

Through this partnership, all A2P traffic to Thumb Cellular, across Short Code, Toll Free, 10DLC, and MMS, will now be managed via ClearSky's industry-leading iCODE A2P platform. This consolidation enables Thumb Cellular to monetize legitimate A2P traffic while significantly reducing the risk of spam, fraud, and improper message routing through person-to-person (P2P) channels.

"The advantages of partnering with ClearSky Technologies have been very noticeable since we integrated their application-to-person services into our network," said Tracey Schenk, Thumb Cellular Director. "Proper message routing gives us greater network control, increased power in combating unwanted spam messages, additional revenue opportunities, and an overall more polished experience for our customers."

ClearSky's comprehensive A2P services provide real-time monitoring, throughput optimization, and compliance alignment—critical factors for delivering reliable and regulation-compliant messaging traffic at scale.

"Partnering with Thumb Cellular allows us to bring a comprehensive, future-ready A2P messaging platform to a forward-thinking carrier," said Ron Willett, VP and GM at ClearSky Technologies. "Our focus is on helping this cellular provider unlock new revenue opportunities while maintaining the highest standards for message delivery, compliance, and security."
