**Please update your business profile plan to Standard if your business has an EIN number. If your business is not registered, please note that US carriers may charge extra to all unregistered businesses.**

What is A2P 10DLC?

A2P 10DLC refers to a system in the United States that allows businesses to send Application-to-Person (A2P) type messaging via standard 10-digit long code (10DLC) phone numbers.

  • If you have a Canadian Woosender number and only text to Canada, we still recommend that you register your business.

  • Please note that A2P10DLC only applies to SMS & MMS.

New Regulation from TCR (The Campaign Registry)

New regulations from The Campaign Registry (TCR) require all customers with an EIN number to register their business with WooSender.

How to register a Standard Plan?

Go to Settings -- Account Info -- Business Profile Registration -- Click "Create Profile" --Select "Standard". Upgrading to the standard plan is currently free

How to update my business profile?

Update your profile from the Settings -- Account Info -- Business Profile Registration -- Click "Upgrade to Standard"

What if I don't have EIN number?

If you don't have an EIN number, we highly recommend that you apply at the IRS website here (it is free).

Otherwise, we are awaiting an update from the TCR on the new restrictions on businesses without EIN numbers. Use WooSender as usual and wait for another announcement.
