4. Register your brand

The first step in setting up 10DLC is to register your brand/company. There is a one-time registration fee to register your company to prove your company. 

Important: Please make sure to have your Tax ID and registered company name and address before starting this step. Inaccurate details can result in The Campaign Registry denying or delaying your registration.

5. Navigate to campaign



After The Campaign Registry has verified the company information that you provided, you can create a 10DLC campaign.  

A 10DLC campaign contains information about your use case. During this step of the process, you’ll be required to provide details about how you’re using SMS along with a few sample messages. 
 

In most cases, 10DLC campaign approval is instantaneous. In some cases (such as lending or marketing messages), you might be required to provide more details. 





6. Adding numbers to your campaign

 

After your 10DLC campaign is approved, you’ll need to associate phone numbers from your account with it. (Recall: Only phone numbers associated with an active campaign can send SMS messages...) 
 

Each phone number can only be associated with a single 10DLC campaign. Campaigns are limited to maximum of 49 phone numbers.






VERY IMPORTANT Given that these steps are mandated by government law, it is crucial to adhere to them diligently. Failure to follow these steps could result in the rejection of your request. Therefore, strict compliance with the brand and campaign registration processes is essential to ensure that you can legally send SMS text messages from your business phone number in accordance with the FCC regulations.  10DLC - Best Practices (TPRN Registration)
