The basics

Why 10DLC registration matters

A 10-digit long code is just an ordinary local number. It does not become a business texting channel until US carriers approve it, and that approval comes through A2P 10DLC registration. Skip it, and your messages are blocked at the network rather than quietly filtered.

Registration happens in two layers. Brand registration proves who you are. Campaign registration describes what you send. Both are mandatory, and both are checked against real rules that trip up most first-time senders. The guides on this site walk through each step in the order carriers expect.
