MCC and MNC prefixes: how to configure them?

12.06.2026

Prefixes define the number ranges associated with each MCC/MNC combination and are used by the platform to identify the destination network for each message. The platform ships with a pre-loaded prefix database for all countries, but you can add, edit, or remove entries at any time to keep it accurate.

Create a Prefix

Go to Current traffic → Prefixes.

Click Create a prefix.

In the window that opens:

Fill in the fields:

Field

Description

MCC

The Mobile Country Code for the destination country.

MNC (optional)

The Mobile Network Code for a specific operator within the country. Leave empty if the prefix applies to all networks in the country.

Title

A descriptive name for this prefix entry.

Priority

The priority used when multiple prefix records match the same number. Lower values take precedence.

Mnp Status (optional)

Whether this prefix applies to ported numbers. Defaults to No.

File (CSV, TXT) (optional)

Upload a file containing multiple prefix values instead of entering them manually.

Prefixes

The phone number prefixes covered by this entry. Use the + button to add rows and to remove them.

Click Create.

Edit a Prefix

Use the search filters at the top of the Prefixes page – Direction, Prefix, or MNP – to locate the entry you need. Once found, click the edit icon in the row.

The edit form contains the same fields as the create form. To find a prefix by phone number, enter the number in the Prefix field and click Search. If no result appears, remove the last digit and search again – repeat until the platform returns a match.
