📞 How to choose a phone # for business texting When choosing a phone number for your business, it's important to understand your strategy to text with customers including message throughput, registration requirements, budget, and more. Below, we explore the three main types of phone numbers that a business can use for texting: toll-free, 10-digit long code, & dedicated short code 👇 Toll-free (ex. 1-800-333-4444) Toll-free numbers are a great option for medium to high volume and can be called at no charge to customers. The registration requirements are more lenient and there are no registration or monthly fees. These numbers also support conversational messaging, or two-way communication. Toll-free only supports messaging for U.S., Canada, and Puerto Rico. 10-digit long code or 10DLC (ex. 718-333-4444) Registering a 10DLC involves a verification process that establishes who your business is to carrier networks as well as the type of messages being sent. The local area code creates a trusted experience for customers. 10DLC numbers also have a high throughput which ensures that messages are delivered quickly. Messaging is supported in most countries, but not Canada. Dedicated short code (ex. 71834) Short code is the best option for high volume messaging campaigns. Businesses can purchase a random number or a custom vanity short code. Short codes have the most extensive registration process. International messaging is supported, but a short code needs to be registered for each country needed. Short codes have expensive monthly costs, are not designed for conversational messaging, and do not support voice capabilities.
