A2P 10DLC: What You Need to Know

A2P 10DLC stands for Application-to-Person 10-Digit Long Code. It is a new system that allows businesses to send SMS messages to mobile phones in the United States using standard 10-digit phone numbers. A2P 10DLC was created in response to the growing problem of spam and fraud SMS messages.

Here are some of the benefits of using A2P 10DLC:

• Improved delivery rates: A2P 10DLC messages are more likely to be delivered to the recipient's inbox than messages sent using the old system.

• Reduced spam and fraud: A2P 10DLC messages are subject to stricter authentication and filtering requirements, which helps to reduce the amount of spam and fraud SMS messages.

• Increased transparency: A2P 10DLC messages include more information about the sender, such as the business name and phone number. This helps to build trust with recipients.

If you are a business that sends SMS messages to mobile phones in the United States, you should consider using A2P 10DLC. It is the best way to ensure that your messages are delivered reliably and securely.
