Toll-Free verification rejection - Could not validate business information

Possible Causes

The Toll-Free phone number cannot be verified because of invalid information. The Business Information, such as business name or address, that was submitted could not be verified, or the website URL could not be validated because it is not accessible or available.

Possible Solutions

Ensure all business information fields are valid and accurately represent the business that manages the opt-in and has a relationship with the consumer:

30446

Toll-Free verification rejection - Opt-in not sufficient: express consent required

Verification is one component of ensuring A2P SMS is used by businesses in a legal and compliant manner. The review process looks at the business sending messaging (not the software powering it), the use case, sample content, the web presence, the opt-in/consent collected, and associated website terms and privacy policies.

Possible Causes

The Opt-in workflow provided in the toll-free verification is not sufficient. Express Consent is required. Express Consent is more than collecting a phone number - it is a voluntary, informed end-user choice for a specific purpose - it requires upfront disclosure and intentional action. Explicit opt-in leaves no ambiguity for why the customer gave the phone number, and for how they expect the company will communicate with them.

Every end business must have consent from each recipient they send a message. Consumers may permit text, on a form, on a website, or verbally. Consumers may also give written permission. Listing “SMS” in your Terms of Service or Privacy Policy is not Express Consent.

Note: If there is promotional messaging on this toll-free phone number, it requires express written consent.

Opt-in refers to the process of getting a consumer's permission to send them text messages. According to TCPA law, businesses must have "express written consent" from the consumer before texting them. NonConsumer (A2P) Message Senders should:

  • Obtain a Consumer's consent to receive messages generally.

  • Obtain a Consumer's express written consent to specifically receive marketing messages;

  • Ensure that Consumers can revoke consent.

Possible Solutions

  • Correct your opt-in process to collect a consumer's express consent via the CTIA guidelines and resubmit the toll-free verification.

  • Note: An opt-in call-to-action (CTA) with a checkbox must be unchecked by default

30447

Toll-Free verification rejection - phone number not provisioned to Call Loop

Verification is one component of ensuring A2P SMS is used by businesses in a legal and compliant manner. The review process looks at the business sending messaging (not the software powering it), the use case, sample content, the web presence, the opt-in/consent collected, and associated website terms and privacy policies.

Possible Causes

  • The toll-free verification was submitted before the toll-free phone number completed porting to Call Loop.

  • The toll-free phone number is not provisioned to Call Loop.

Possible Solutions

  • If the number is/was with another messaging provider at the time of verification, please ensure the porting or hosting process has been initiated and is complete. Then, delete the rejected toll-free verification and submit a new request after the port completes.

  • If it's not a porting scenario, contact Call Loop Support.

30448

Toll-Free phone number verification rejection - Age Gate

Verification is one component of ensuring A2P SMS is used by businesses in a legal and compliant manner. The review process looks at the business sending messaging (not the software powering it), the use case, sample content, the web presence, the opt-in/consent collected, and associated website terms and privacy policies.

Possible Causes

The Toll-Free phone number cannot be verified because an Age Gate is not present or is not acceptable on your website and/or opt-in policy.

Possible Solutions

Add a robust age gate to your website or opt-in policy. Resubmit the toll-free verification with the updated age gate information.

30449

Toll-Free phone number verification rejection - Age Gate

Verification is one component of ensuring A2P SMS is used by businesses in a legal and compliant manner. The review process looks at the business sending messaging (not the software powering it), the use case, sample content, the web presence, the opt-in/consent collected, and associated website terms and privacy policies.

Possible Causes

The toll-free phone number cannot be verified because the website URL in the sample message that you submitted was either from a public URL shortener or is non-secure.

Links to websites embedded within a message cannot conceal or obscure the Message Sender's identity and are not intended to cause harm or deceive Consumers. A website URL used in messaging must be a dedicated custom domain that belongs to your business, not a free shared public link shortener. The domain must align with the message sender identified in the text message itself.

Web addresses contained in messages, as well as any websites to which they redirect, should unambiguously identify the website owner (i.e., a person or legally registered business entity) and include contact information, such as a postal mailing address.

Possible Solutions

  • Replace the call to action (CTA) in the sample message with a branded URL. Resubmit the toll-free verification with an updated sample message.

  • Ensure that any URLs sent in messages are not sent from a public URL shortener.

  • Consider utilizing Call Loop's Link Shortening to programmatically shorten long links.
