ShortMessage has a maximum of 254bytes
Payload has a maximum of 64bytes

Since most telephony networks won't let you send more than 160 characters in one SM I believe you should usually use ShortMessage.

Payload I believe is for when you might be sending larger binary data such as Logos and Ringtones.
