Sinch Community

Before you launch your 10DLC message program, Sinch must review your campaign to make sure your message program aligns with carrier and industry requirements. Principally we look for alignment with CTIA Messaging Principles and Best Practices. For more details on 10DLC campaign requirements, refer to 10DLC Compliance Requirements and Guidance.   If Sinch rejects your 10DLC campaign, we will provide a rejection code with a description.

There are a few different ways you can migrate your existing 10DLC messaging campaigns to Sinch. How you migrate your 10DLC message program to Sinch depends on how your brands and campaigns are registered and whether you are a CSP (Campaign Service Provider) or not.  You are NOT a CSP. This means your previous provider registered your brands and campaigns in TCR (The Campaign Registry) on your behalf. Your previous provider was your CSP.  You are a CSP. This means you have registered your brands and campaigns directly in TCR.  Your migration options also depend on whether you want to keep your existing number or get a new number.  Hosting: This means that you want to migrate only the messaging service for your number to Sinch and keep your voice service with your current carrier.  Porting: This means that you will migrate both voice and text service for your number to Sinch. Sinch will be the new carrier for your number.  Buy a new number: This means that you will buy a new number from Sinch to use for your existing 10DLC message program.   If you are NOT a CSP You cannot migrate your existing registered brands and campaigns to Sinch from your other vendor, but you can still move your 10DLC messaging to Sinch. Because your previous vendor registered your brands and campaigns on your behalf, you will need to register new brands and campaigns with Sinch to migrate your 10DLC message program. You will incur fees for any new registrations. After you create new brands and campaigns with Sinch, you can port or host your existing number with Sinch, or get a new number from Sinch.    To migrate your 10DLC messaging to Sinch, you will do the following: Create your 10DLC brand. If your brand was previously vetted, you can import your brand's vetting score for your new brand.  Create your 10DLC campaign.   Port or host your existing number with Sinch or get a new number from Sinch (via customer dashboard or Numbers API).  Sinch will do the following: Review brand and campaign information you provided and then register the brand and campaign in TCR on your behalf.

See the Importing Numbers article for more info.     To migrate your 10DLC messaging to Sinch, you will do the following:  Revoke your existing CNP election (reach out to TCR for more information on this process).  Select Sinch as your new CNP.  Update the OSR number record with the NNID that is provisioned with Sinch.  Import your number to Sinch (via customer dashboard or Numbers API).   Sinch will do the following:  Review and accept the CNP election.  Provision number in carrier platforms.  Provision number for messaging in Sinch's platform.  Note: As a CSP, you can only elect Sinch as your new CNP if you are the last “hop” before your current DCA (Direct Connect Aggregator). If you are a CSP that elects an upstream CNP that is not a DCA, then you cannot elect Sinch as your new CNP. TCR is working on supporting this capability via a new migration tool that will be available by the end of Q1 2024. For more information, refer to TCR’s Campaign CNP Migration Tool documentation.  Example 1: CSPA --> CSPB --> DCA1. CSPB can elect a new CNP, but CSPA cannot.   Example 2: CSPX --> DCA1. CSPX can elect a new CNP.   Learn more about 10DLC with Sinch  ... View more

10DLC throughput is managed at a brand or campaign level, so it's not generally required to use more than one number for your campaign. However, there may be some use cases that require multiple numbers. If you intend to use more than 50 numbers for your 10DLC campaign, then a special configuration called a "number pool" must be set up for your campaign.      Some campaign use cases where a number pool may be needed include:   Proxy (conversational) – typically this is where numbers are rotated through a pool, such as ride-share or logistics/delivery companies assigning a pool of proxy numbers between their drivers and customers. Agents and Franchises – this use case may require a number pool for assignment to individual employees within a company, or use cases that require locality, such as: Hotels, hospitality, restaurants Offices (doctors, dentists, etc.) Contact centers Retail companies’ brick and mortar stores Franchises, banks, insurance agencies Agents with dedicated phone numbers Customer care Churches Emergency services (PSAP support) Educational (multiple universities/schools/campuses) UCaaS (Unified Communication as a Service) – a number pool may be needed for UCaaS campaigns for businesses with more than 50 employees Platform Free Trial – a pool of numbers may be required in order to ensure number availability for trial users.   You can fill out the 10DLC Number Pool Request Form, or reach out to your Sinch Account Manager for assistance in requesting and configuring a number pool for your 10DLC campaign. ...

Here are some helpful tips on how to provide the correct Tax ID during the 10DLC brand registration process.   How to enter the correct Tax ID   United States   If you are a US company or a foreign company with a US IRS Employer Identification Number (EIN), provide your nine-digit EIN in the Tax ID field during brand registration.   Make sure that your legal company name matches your IRS registration and is spelled correctly. The address you enter should also be the same that is used in registering with the IRS. The correct information for registration can be found on your company's IRS EIN confirmation letter (SS-4).   Example EIN confirmation letter:     If you do not enter the information exactly as it appears on your EIN confirmation letter, your Brand will be in an unverified state and you will not be able to register a campaign until this is resolved.  Thus, as stated above, the information you enter must match your EIN information.     Canada   If your primary business registration is in Canada, please enter one of the following tax IDs: Your Canadian Business Number (BN) that was issued by the CRA. Please only enter the first 9 numeric digits. Here's an example (only enter what is in the red box): Your Corporation/Incorporation Number Your Registry ID   Make sure your legal company name is consistent with your corporation registration and is properly spelled. The address you enter should also be the same as that used in registering with Corporations Canada. You can use the following free resources to check that you've entered the correct info: Canada business registries search Canada federal corporation search   For more guidance and resources on how to provide the correct brand information for 10DLC brand registration, make sure to check out the 10DLC Brand Identity Resources article. ...
