FAQs

What is 10DLC and do I need it?

10DLC is the carrier-approved system for sending business texts from 10-digit phone numbers in the US. If you send any bulk or automated texts to US numbers, registration has been mandatory since February 1, 2025. Unregistered messages are blocked.

How long does 10DLC approval take?

Brand registration is often instant (up to 1–2 business days). Use case approval typically takes 2–3 business days. 

Do political campaigns need anything extra?

Yes — political brands need a Campaign Verify token ($95, from campaignverify.org) before registering use cases. CallHub guides you through this automatically.

I'm a candidate running for election. What should I select?

Select “Non-Profit Organization” as your organization type and “Political campaigns and services” as your company vertical. CallHub will route you to the correct use case category from there.

Does CallHub review my submission before it goes to carriers?

Yes — every submission is reviewed by our compliance team before it reaches TCR. We check for the issues that cause most rejections and flag anything that needs fixing. This is included for all customers at no extra cost.

What happens if my registration gets rejected?

Most rejections come from a few common issues — wrong use case selection, opt-in form problems, or incomplete message flows. CallHub’s guided wizard and expert review are designed to prevent these. If a rejection does occur, our team helps you fix the specific issue and resubmits.

Can I text with toll-free while waiting for 10DLC approval?

Yes. Toll-free approval takes 3–5 business days and doesn’t require Campaign Verify or an EIN. It’s a great interim option while your 10DLC processes.

How much does it cost in total?

Political orgs: ~$144 total to get started ($4 brand + $95 Campaign Verify + $30/quarter use case + $15 vetting). 

Non-political: ~$89 ($44 brand, refunded as credits, + $30/quarter + $15 vetting). No hidden fees.

What if I'm already a CallHub customer?

Go to Settings → Compliance → 10DLC and follow the guided flow. Our compliance team reviews your submission before it goes to TCR. Need help? Reach us at [email protected].
