TFN Verification Compliance Guidance

Toll-free verification compliance guidance is based on the CTIA Messaging Principles and Best Practices document.  By complying with the principles provided here, the toll-free sender verification process should be straightforward and your toll-free campaigns should run without issue.

Note: If your toll-free number (TFN) has significant reported end user complaints, some wireless operators may slow down or suspend your campaign or numbers to prevent unwanted messaging on the toll-free network. 

Looking for end-to-end guidance and visual examples of approved opt-in forms? Review our comprehensive TFN Messaging Compliance Guide deck before submitting your TFN Verification application to avoid rejections and prevent delays on timeline expectations for your TFN to start sending messages. 

Think of this as a checklist of things you should comply with in order to keep your messaging from getting flagged as spam, and to ensure your toll-free verification request is approved in a timely manner.  While it may not work 100% of the time, a thorough authenticity check can help you identify red flags early on for businesses who may intend to send spam and/or phishing text messages.

Validating these details verifies the authenticity of the business, establishing the credibility and legitimacy required to meet A2P messaging compliance standards.
