Overview
As a marketer, you can set up a standard format for submitting mobile numbers to MoEngage and select the required details, such as adding + and country code so that MoEngage can submit mobile numbers in E.164 format, i.e., +countrycodemobilenumber to WhatsApp and SMS connectors.
We recommend using one of the following formats to store a mobile number in MoEngage. Examples of a mobile number to be sent to a customer in the US / Canada are mentioned below:
- E.164 Format i.e. +countrycodemobilenumber, for example, +1999999999
- Numbers without a + (plus ) sign, for example, 19999999999
- Mobile numbers without country code and + sign, for example, 999999999
