Enable outgoing SMS for your US numbers

To ensure reliable and compliant text messaging for your US LimePhone number, you need to register for 10DLC (10-digit long code) messaging. This guide will walk you through the process, using best practices from industry leaders like Twilio and OpenPhone.

What is 10DLC?

10DLC is a new standard for business texting in the US. It replaces shared short codes with dedicated 10-digit phone numbers, offering better deliverability and compliance with carrier regulations.

Why Register for 10DLC?

  • Improved Deliverability: 10DLC numbers have higher throughput and lower filtering rates than shared short codes.

  • Regulatory Compliance: 10DLC registration helps ensure your business texting complies with CTIA (Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association) guidelines.

  • Brand Reputation: Dedicated 10DLC numbers build trust with customers and enhance your brand reputation.

10DLC Registration Process

  1. Signup/Upgrade to an annual paid subscription (Only those accounts with annual plan can apply for 10dlc)

  2. Gather Information:

    • Legal Business Name

    • Business Type (e.g., Corporation, LLC, Sole Proprietorship)

    • Tax Identification Number (EIN or SSN)

    • Business Address

    • Website URL (if applicable)

    • Use Case Description (e.g., marketing, customer service, account notifications)

    • Sample Message Templates

  3. Submit Registration:

  4. Verification and Approval:

    • LimePhone will verify your information and submit it to The Campaign Registry (TCR) for approval.

    • The approval process may take several business days.

  5. Enable 10DLC on Your LimePhone Number:

    • Once approved, LimePhone will enable 10DLC messaging on your US number.

    • You can then start sending text messages using your registered 10DLC number.

Note: LimePhone charges 30$ for each 10DLC registration.

Best Practices

  • Accurate Information: Ensure all information provided during registration is accurate and up-to-date.

  • Clear Use Case: Provide a clear and concise description of your text messaging use case.

  • Sample Messages: Submit representative message templates that align with your use case.

  • Transparency: Be transparent with customers about how you will use their data and obtain consent for marketing messages.

  • Monitoring: Monitor your 10DLC traffic for deliverability issues and address any concerns promptly.

If you have any questions or need assistance with 10DLC registration, please contact LimePhone support. We're here to help you ensure your business texting is successful and compliant.
