One sender can be used only for one segment. If the one company has content that belongs to both segments, they have to register different senders. Marketing segment has a mandatory OPT OUT.

How sending works

You send to every destination through the same endpoint and the same keys. Bird picks a compliant route for the country, applies opt-out handling on every message, and reports delivery from carrier receipts. The country-specific part is which sender you register. The API call does not change.
