Your follow-up texts could be perfect and still never arrive. Carriers quietly filter business texts from numbers that aren't registered.

Registration takes an hour of paperwork and a few days of waiting. Get it right once and every reminder, follow-up and campaign you send actually lands.

What you'll have

  • Approved A2P 10DLC registration
  • Forms with a compliant consent checkbox
  • Text templates for confirmations, reminders and follow-up

Have these ready

  • Your legal business name and EIN exactly as registered
  • Your website with a privacy policy
  • A form where people agree to receive texts

Do it yourself · Beginner · About 1 hour, plus carrier review

Here's exactly how.

  1. 1

    Know why it matters

    US carriers block or filter business texts from numbers that aren't registered. Registration tells them who you are and what you send.

  2. 2

    Match your legal details exactly

    Your business name, EIN and address must match your IRS records character for character. This is the most common reason for rejections.

  3. 3

    Describe your use case plainly

    Say what you text and why: appointment reminders, replies to inquiries, follow-up with people who asked. Include sample messages with your business name and opt-out language.

  4. 4

    Show how people opt in

    Your forms need a consent checkbox and a link to your privacy policy. Carriers check.

  5. 5

    Submit and wait

    Carrier review usually takes a few days, sometimes longer. Don't send campaigns from an unregistered number in the meantime.

  6. 6

    Set up your templates

    Create snippets for confirmations, reminders and follow-ups so your team texts consistently and quickly.

Tips from our team

  • Only text people who gave you permission. Purchased lists get numbers banned.
  • Every marketing text needs a way to opt out, such as "Reply STOP to opt out."
  • Keep texts short; long messages and emoji cost more segments.
