Phone carriers make every business register before it can text customers from a business number. We handle the registration for you. Your part is a few quick fixes and some patience.
How it works
- We set up your business phone number. Calls work right away. See Your Business Phone Number.
- Your website needs a few things. Carriers check your site for a privacy policy, terms, and a clear way people agree to texts. See Website Changes You Need Before Texting Is Approved.
- We submit your registration. We send you the approval wording by email, because it's written for your business.
- The carriers review it. Approval usually takes 1 to 2 weeks.
The full guide is How to Get Your Text Messaging Approved.
While you wait
- Calls work. Texts from the new number won't deliver until you're approved.
- Start collecting permission. See How to Get Customers to Opt In to Texts.
- Keeping your old number? See Keeping Your Existing Business Number: Forward It or Port It.
After you're approved
Text people who said yes, keep an eye on opt-outs, and stay under your daily limits. See Texting After You're Approved and Why Your Texting Got Paused.
