Standard Plan brand registration should be approved within 8 business days because you already have a verified business identity through the Trust Center profile.
🎯 Register your Campaign Use Cases
Once you are approved as having a Standard Plan, you can begin to create your campaign types.
Depending on how your business communications are organized, you may need to register more than one campaign type. For example, if you use text messaging for account alerts but also send promotional discount coupons via text, you will need to register two campaign types. We anticipate that most of our clients will fall under Marketing or Mixed Use.
You will need the following information to register a campaign:
Number Pool. Referred to as "Message Service" by the carriers, this indicates which phone numbers will be sending the campaign content. You will be able to select a single number or create bundles of numbers to use.
or
Manually select the numbers you want to use in this campaign.
In case you buy new phone numbers, you can assign them directly to campaigns. Learn more here: How to buy a phone number? ⇢
Campaign use case - see list here ⇢
Campaign description - A friendly name you create to help differentiate between campaigns on your account.
Two sample messages - Copy/paste text messages that would be used. (Standard Plan only)
There are one-time ($15) and ongoing costs (up to $10/mo.) associated with campaign registration. We pass through the fees directly to you. When your Standard Plan is approved, you will be charged the registration fee and the first installment of the monthly fees.
🔢 Add/Modify Phone Numbers Associated with Your Campaign
Once your campaigns are set and approved, you can go back into your Trust Center > A2P profile and add/remove phone numbers from each campaign as needed.
Each phone number can be attached to only one campaign
Each campaign can have up to 49 phone numbers (we have capped the phone numbers per campaign to 49 due to T-Mobile's limitations)
Please be aware that starting January 26, 2023, all new A2P 10DLC Campaign registrations (Low Volume and Standard Brand Plans) are subject to a manual vetting process, and every time you submit a campaign for review, you are going to be charged $15.
Adding numbers for validation will add up to 10 days to the entire waiting time. Moreover, if you decide to delete or move a phone number from one campaign to another, this number re-enters the validation process.
You can still add multiple phone numbers to the campaign from the Phone Number Page later on.
