Carrier verification

How registration works

US carriers require every business texting platform to verify who is sending and why. Quick Send handles the paperwork. You fill out one profile.

Two number types

Toll-free by default. Local when you want it.

Plans include a toll-free number. Local area-code numbers are optional. You can use both on one account with the same business profile.

Toll-free numbers

The default path. Numbers like 1-833-555-0123. Included with your plan. Pick your number, complete the profile, and submit one verification per number.

Requires an EIN (free from the IRS)
Number first, then profile and submit
Review usually takes 1 to 2 weeks

Local numbers

Optional area-code numbers like (619) 555-0123. Submit your profile first. Pick a number whenever you want. One 10DLC registration covers all local numbers on your account.

$10/mo when you submit local registration
Profile first, number whenever
Review usually takes 1 to 3 business days
Sole proprietors without an EIN can use this path

Already registered on one path? Adding the other reuses your saved profile. Toll-free verification and 10DLC registration are separate carrier reviews, not a full redo.

Tips for a smooth approval

Match your EIN exactly

Your legal business name and EIN must match IRS records. Mismatches are the most common cause of delays.

Use a live website

A working website that matches your brand helps carriers verify your business faster.

Write realistic sample messages

Include opt-out language in promotional samples (for example, Reply STOP to unsubscribe).

Describe opt-in clearly

Explain where and how people consent to receive texts. Vague descriptions often get sent back for edits.

Wait for approval before campaigns

Each number must finish its carrier review before it can send campaigns. Quick Send blocks outbound sends from unverified numbers.
