I’ve come across the term A2P messaging a few times in business articles, especially around SMS marketing. But what does it actually involve? How is it different from P2P texting, and why do companies choose A2P over other channels?

Good question — I’ve also seen the term but never really looked into what makes it special.

At its core, A2P (Application-to-Person) messaging is about businesses sending messages to customers through an automated platform. It differs from P2P (Person-to-Person) texting because it’s scalable and usually used for alerts, authentication codes, or marketing.

lays out all the technical and practical details. I read it when we were setting up messaging for our startup, and it really helped me understand things like delivery pathways, compliance issues, and use cases. If your company is thinking about incorporating SMS campaigns or sending out time-sensitive messages to clients, A2P is the way to go. It offers better delivery rates, reliability, and tools for tracking results.
