#FAQ

Have questions? We've got answers.

Find what you need quickly and clearly with our most frequently asked questions.

  • 10DLC registration is mandated to ensure reliable delivery of business SMS messages to U.S. phone numbers. Beginning February 1, 2025, unregistered senders are subject to message blocking by major carriers, which will disrupt communications and impact business operations. Registration validates sender legitimacy and improves message deliverability.

  • Clerk Chat provides a streamlined registration process. We've removed a lot of the things that cause confusion. In fact, in your side, there is no action needed from you at this time, you have submitted your registration properly. The failure is a result of registry services unable to handle the traffic ahead of the deadline. Rest assured, Clerk Chat is following up on your behalf and will update when possible. Sorry for all the disruption this may have caused.

  • The opt-in widget is crucial – it's the way carriers make sure you're getting proper consent to send messages, and is the way of meeting carrier standards! Think of it as a 'permission slip' for SMS communication. Ideally, you'll place the widget on a dedicated page, with consent language, just like we did here: https://clerk.chat/misc/sms-opt-in/. If you can't do that, you can use existing options, like Facebook, but this is not the best option.

  • No, you will not need to do this as everything you need comes with Clerk Chat. Great question! The good news is, you don't have to be a lawyer! The Clerk Chat opt-in widget automatically handles all the legal mumbo jumbo for you! It has all the text you need to ensure your SMS policies. All you need to do is paste the code provided by our app, and you don't need to do anything on your end.

  • Yes 10DLC is still needed. OK, this sounds crazy, but I only send texts to my employees for scheduling and internal updates. Do I still need to jump through these 10DLC hoops? I know how scary this is, but there is no need to worry! As long as you did submit you are set! In the event of a failed submission, there is no action needed from you at this time, you have submitted your registration properly. The failure is a result of registry services unable to handle the traffic ahead of the deadline. Rest assured, Clerk Chat is following up on your behalf and will update when possible. Sorry for all the disruption this may have caused.

  • TCR is the registry service that vetts companies before sending information. In fact, I know the 10DLC is not a new telecommunications requirement, but there is a looming deadline of Feb. 1 to register. Otherwise carriers may start to block your messages. 10DLC ensures that senders are vetted as actual companies, not fraudsters looking to spam via SMS.
