What is A2P 10DLC

We all hate spam messages, but the problem is just getting worse. Phone carriers needed a way to deal with huge amounts of spam being sent through their networks, and this messaging standard was created to combat that problem.

Fanni Fekete, a customer services specialist at Close, explains:

“In Europe, phone providers always know who you are based on the phone number, but in the US it's not the case. So of course, spam and fraud are getting more and more prevalent, and with a 10-digit phone number, you can pretend you're a person. Carriers have now said they will block all SMS traffic that comes from an application with a 10-digit phone number. And if you want to use it, you have to register and get approved."
