Introduction
Our messaging provider, Twilio, enforces strict guidelines for SMS content. Toll-Free Verification is required for sending messages over Toll-Free phone numbers. The Toll-Free Verification process requires providing detailed information which helps ensure phone numbers are tied to valid businesses and helps prevent fraud.
Important: Users who do not complete verification are blocked from sending any messages over Toll-Free numbers as of January 31, 2024. We recommend all users submit their registration as soon as possible to avoid delays in processing, and verification.
Verification Statuses
| Status | Description | Helpful Hint |
| Restricted |
This means your number has been submitted and is in pending review from Twilio. |
During this stage, you can still go in and update the form if needed. |
| Pending Verification | This means your number is actively being reviewed by Twilio. |
During this time, you cannot make any updates to the form. |
| Rejected |
Twilio has rejected the submission, and more information is needed. |
Depending on the error code, if you do not update and resubmit within 7 days, the submission will expire. It's best to edit and resubmit within this time frame. After 7 days, the toll-free number stays restricted until the resubmission is received. An expired submission will be reviewed but will take as long as a new one. |
| Verified | Twilio has verified and approved your phone number. You can now send SMS messages through Gingr. |
