Number format

How do I write Guatemala numbers for a bulk SMS list?

Write numbers for Guatemala in international format: the calling code +502 first, then the national number. If people in Guatemala dial a domestic trunk prefix such as 0 at the start, leave it out after the calling code. A number written this way looks like +502 5555 1234. Spaces and dashes are fine; the console removes them when it reads your list.

Language

Which alphabet do recipients in Guatemala read?

Most recipients in Guatemala read Spanish. Text without special letters fits GSM-7 at 160 characters per segment, but á, í, ó and ú are outside that alphabet and switch the whole message to UCS-2 at 70 characters per segment. Writing those letters without accents, or keeping the text short, keeps a campaign at one segment.

Timing

When is the best time to send SMS to Guatemala?

Guatemala keeps one time offset, UTC-6, all year. Local 9:00 to 20:00 in Guatemala is 15:00 to 02:00 UTC in January. The scheduler uses the time zone of your own browser, so convert the local hour you want before you pick it.
