Depending on the specifics of the month, the amount of payments under this item may differ significantly, and the specification of information on these payments is usually not attached. What does this mean “SMS Partner of MTS” and to whom these payments are intended? Let's figure it out.

What is “SMS MTS PARTNER”?

As you know, the services of the mobile operator MTS include not only voice communication, but also many additional alternatives. These are mobile Internet, SMS information services, mobile TV, downloading various gaming programs to a smartphone, subscriptions to online media and much more.

In addition to the operator itself, these types of services can be provided by various third-party organizations (Internet resources), with which the subscriber has previously issued any types of contracts (Internet subscriptions). They can be either free (for example, informing retailers of any promotions) or paid, in accordance with the services provided to the subscriber (paid music subscription, paid SMS informing and so on).

Writing off expenses “SMS PARTNER SMS” means writing off the funds of an MTS subscriber for any paid services rendered to him by various third parties. A subscription to a paid service subscriber may be conscious (for example, a person deliberately chose to pay for paid music), or be random (the subscriber simply clicked on a button or link). There are also situations when similar paid services were imposed on a person against his will (fraud).
