Nexmo is our privileged provider for delivering Text messages in the United States. That's the reason why in its configuration form you can read a double entry on the "originator":
- worldwide
- U.S.A only
As a matter of fact in order to deliver text messages to an US mobile number there are some pre-requisites to be match:
- Originator has to be numeric only
- Originator has to be a long US number (not a short one)

If some of the above pre-requisites is not observed, then the message could not be delivered.
