SMS & MMS Messaging Cost

Both SMS and MMS messaging offer a variety of benefits, including high open rates, quick delivery, and real-time communication. These channels enable you to connect with your audience in a personalized and targeted way, resulting in higher engagement and conversion rates.

Phone Messaging Policy

We all expect that the messages we want to receive will reach us, unhindered by filtering or other blockers. An important step that ADvance Leads - Phone and our customers can take to make that expectation a reality is to prevent and eliminate unwanted messages.

We make sure that the messages sent through ADvance Leads - Phone are to consenting parties and follow applicable laws, industry standards, and guidelines.

Caller ID for Your ADvance Leads Phone Number

A2P 10DLC registration is like having a caller ID for your business's CRM phone number because it enables messaging service providers and mobile carriers to authenticate the sender's identity and verify the legitimacy of messaging traffic. This results in improved message deliverability rates, reduced costs, and a better user experience for recipients.

A2P 10DLC FAQs

What is A2P 10DLC?

A2P 10DLC refers to a system in the United States that allows businesses to send Application-to-Person (A2P) type messaging via standard 10-digit long code (10DLC) phone numbers. Carriers in the US consider all Twilio traffic to be A2P. Carriers’ A2P 10DLC offerings provide better delivery quality and lower filtering risk than long code SMS of the past, using the same phone numbers.

What happens if I don't register?

Increased message filtering and fees will apply to messages that are sent without registration. We also expect that at a future date, unregistered messaging to the US via long code numbers will cease to be supported altogether.

Registration Specifics

In order to register businesses and brands, you will need information about each business and brand. The required info includes the business name, physical address, business type (LLC, partnership, etc.).
