# Mobile Money Operator Prefixes

All the telecoms that provide the mobile money options to Elemi have different prefixes that identify the mobile money numbers. These prefixes usually come right after the international country code

The table below shows the phone prefixes for the different networks/payment options that offer mobile money. These prefixes will also be returned as the part of the response when mobile money payment options are queried as described in this [section](/utility-functions/payment-options.md). Merchants are free to use this information and handle phone number validations.
