A Complete Guide to A2P 10DLC Compliance for Businesses

A2P 10DLC is a system that allows businesses to send application-to-peer messages using a 10-digit long code. This has become an industry standard as lawmakers and carriers, including Verizon and T-Mobile, have set compliance rules that all businesses must adhere to.

Additionally, A2P 10DLC compliance ensures that text messages will be delivered to your customers, so long as you meet all other required text messaging compliance requirements. Put simply, if you ignore A2P 10DLC, your business text messages will not be delivered.

How Does the Registration Process Work

The registration process starts with verifying your business’s legitimacy using a W-9 form, validated by messaging providers like Twilio or FiveNine.

The Campaign Registry (TCR) then reviews and approves your use cases. It’s essential to ensure opt-in consent or disclaimers on all forms to avoid campaign rejection and undelivered messages.

Provide your business’s W-9 form to texting vendor (like Pagovision) for verification.

The Campaign Registry (TCR) reviews the Campaign registration and approves it.

Ensure you have opt-in consent or a disclaimer on all forms of communication.

Your messaging use cases will be reviewed by TCR for campaign approval.

If approved, your texts can now be delivered using an A2P 10DLC system with compliance rules.
