1
Submit your campaign
You fill out The Campaign Registry (TCR) form on your provider's portal — campaign description, sample messages, opt-in flow, policy links. Submission goes into a carrier review queue.
How carrier review actually works
Submitting blind costs you weeks. Submitting ready costs you minutes.
2
Wait 7+ days
Verizon, T-Mobile and AT&T each review against their own checklist. They take days, sometimes longer at peak times. You see "pending" the whole time.
3
Rejected — on one thing
They tell you about the first issue they hit. Vague campaign description. No SMS section in your privacy policy. Sign-up form without a consent box. They don't tell you about the other 9 issues behind it.
4
Fix that one thing → resubmit → wait another 7 days
And get rejected again — for the next thing. Most teams cycle 3 or 4 times before approval. That's a month of "we can't text our customers yet" while leads sit cold.
The fix
Get every issue green before you submit.
We run the same 17 checks carriers run, in about 60 seconds. You get a prioritised fix-it list with the exact text to paste back for re-checking — and once you're at submission-ready, a TCR Pack with every field pre-filled. Submit once. Approved once.
Common rejection reasons we catch
The 17 things carriers actually look at.
Privacy policy
Must explicitly mention SMS, what data you collect, no selling phone numbers to third parties.
Terms of service
Must reference the messaging program, carrier disclaimers, opt-out rights.
Sign-up form
Visible disclosure with msg/data rates, frequency, opt-out instructions, and a separate unchecked consent checkbox.
Site basics
HTTPS, footer links to policy + terms, contact info that's actually reachable from the homepage.
Vertical eligibility
Some industries (cannabis, sports betting, payday) take a different path entirely — we tell you upfront if standard 10DLC won't work for you.
Campaign description
We draft a TCR-ready description and message flow based on what we see — review-friendly, specific enough to clear the first beat.

10DLC stands for "10-Digit Long Code" — the regular phone numbers businesses use to text customers. Since 2021, US carriers (Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T) require every business to register their brand and their texting program before messages get delivered reliably.
The registration goes through a body called The Campaign Registry (TCR). Carriers ask you to declare who you are, what you'll send, how consumers consent, and how they opt out. They reject submissions that don't pass — usually for vague campaign descriptions, missing privacy-policy language, or sign-up forms without a consent checkbox.
We check your site against what carriers look for, then give you a fix-it list and the exact text to paste into your provider's TCR form. We don't write your legal documents — that's for your lawyer or a privacy-policy generator — but we tell you what they need to cover.
