What is Direct Routing and Why Avoid Gray Routes?

What is direct routing and why should you avoid gray routes?

Gray roads (to avoid)

A “grey route” is an unofficial international delivery path, often used by low-cost providers, that sends your SMS through multiple intermediaries before reaching the final Moroccan operator. Frequent consequences:

  • Unpredictable delivery times
  • Sender ID modified, truncated or replaced by a generic number
  • High blocking rate by spam filters
  • Non-compliance with local regulations
